Ok, I got the pics..I'll upload them tomorrow morning to my ftp site. It's a little ratty around the edges, but it is original paint with just a few spots of rust that can probably just be spotted in.

It comes with a pair of webers and a manifold for them....as well as four aztecs..and a front airdam that appears to be perfect.

Are there any sources for the original ems stripes down the side? One side was removed, the other is Ok.

I think you mean 4 Incas... You will just have to look for NOS stickers , or just have some recut...I haven't heard of any aftermarket suppliers. The sidedraught weber set up worth a decent amount by itself and it may also have some b-motor goodies as well.

That is a different EMS stripe than I have ever seen. The ones I've seen swoop upwards around the rear quarter window. Unless it's a lower one they moved up?

Thats the early style ems stripe. There was a guy that used to sell a repro kit of that one on ebay for years. He was in Italy I remember. The 74 I am working with has the remnants of that style stripe. The swoosh started in 75.

Edit: Heres a pic of an early one from that yard full of vintage saabs I found in Jersey.

Yeah, I haven't seen that guy from Italy selling those reproduced stripes for a while. But... if one side is whole you can get them reproduced.

Brett from http://www.rallygrafix.com/ took a photo of the side of my car and told me to send him the measurement of the door length when I wanted some stripes reproduced (but the whole stripe wasn't there so I need to send him a photo of the real thing sometime). So you could do that to one side and have at least one re-made.

I bought a set from that guy in Italy... I'm not sure where they are though :-P

So how long has it been in storage, does it run? looks like its got a lot of potential!

GRMPer · Postby **GRMPer** » Tue Sep 04, 2007 1:24 pm

Of and on for about 10 years. Ran last about four years ago, hydraulics still good..needs gas tank flushed and sealed (most likely)

Ha, just found out that the 99 has got the last set of Koni shocks for a 99 on it. The owner is the mom of Koni motorsports manager (my friend who told me about it) and he snagged the last set..it's even got the period correct, "Koni Equipped" badge on the back.

The saabaru is going away in a few hours and I should have Garfield by Monday.

woohoo!
