Basically what I can make out is that he is in the process of building a car to debut in 2011, but he says you never know with these projects... He's talking to some old contacts and pulling together the neccessary pieces etc. It also sounds like he has possesion of the museum car in his personal shop for study and replicating the parts...

It says he's going to be copying the original car in the most minute detail, which means B motor with chargecooler, Porsche brakes, v8 CIS fuel distributor...
The kind of dirty that doesn't wash off :eyebrows:

He build a copy of the museum car, and will compete in the "midnatsolsrallyt" this year.
I´t could be delayed to next year.

He used his old contacts to find parts. Hardest thing to find is the gearbox.
And he will drive flat out.

80 % Its about the history from saabs competition department.
