1973 SAAB 95 V4 Wagon

    

  • I have had her since she was new and I was young.  Wanted to restore her but just can't pull it off.  

  • 89,509 miles on odometer.  

  • It has had a couple of engines or rebuilds. 

  • Body is pretty good, some rust, dent in left rear side fender, a 6-inch tear in left side at bottom in front of right door, and bubbles on hood.

  • It has not been running for a couple of years, had, (I think it was), a fuel line fire which was quickly extinguished.  Fire damage seems to be around spark plug area and one fan blade is melted, but no other metal meltdowns and the rubber parts are mostly intact.  Before that, I had major repairs done. 

  • In September 2001 (86672miles) had the engine removed to replace gear shaft, fan drive gear, fan bearing assembly, gaskets, seals and clutch assembly was replaced. 

  • In Jan 2001 axle bushing for brake and clutch pedal repaired. 

  • In Nov 1999 (85352mi) the transmission was completely redone. 

  • Tires almost new when last driven. 

  • The registration is current and she even has the original manual. 

  • Interior: headliner intact, no tears.  Back seat and jump seat in good condition, there is one small 2" rip in back seat.  Front seats need work.  Inside looks pretty good apart from that. 

  • She had a supporting role in a Huey Lewis Video, "Bad is Bad" during the '80s. 

I'd love for her to go to a Saab fan who'd like to fix her up.

1970 SAAB 96

  

I hate to be posting this little car for sale because it’s like part of the family - but the time has come. 

My son and I have been working on this a little at a time for 8 years.  It has always been my son’s daily driver and it still is.  He is graduating from college and needs a car that requires a little less tinkering.  Because we’ve loved owning it we had Paul Vail from Absolute Saab rebuild the engine last spring - but a newer car is what we need.  The car is currently in San Diego where my son attends college.

Here’s a list of what we’ve done:

  • The car has 120200 original miles

  • Full engine rebuild at 115K incl new pistons

  • New Weber carb

  • Rebuilt alternator

  • New water pump

  • Custom built high capacity radiator

  • New stock exhaust system

Additional new or renewed parts:

  • Electric radiator fan and thermal switch

  • New coil and electronic ignition

  • Rebuilt starter motor

  • Rebuilt wiper motor

  • New brake master cylinder

  • New Clutch master cylinder

  • New Clutch slave cylinder

  • New Clutch and pressure plate

  • Rebuilt rear brake cylinder

  • New front brake pads

  • New front end upper and lower bushings

  • Front and rear seats custom reupholstered

  • New shocks all around

There is very little rust and the car has very good glass all around.

1959 SAAB 93B, Suicide Door Bullnose

Body is in great condition, no bondo, all original and straight.  Floors are solid with no cancer, only a little surface rust in a few spots.  Door panels and headliner are missing but the original seats are present with the vehicle.  The car has its original 3 speed trans, but it comes with an 850cc 3cylinder 2 stroke engine from another Saab.  Engine is complete and comes with triple carburetor set-up and single set-up.  Front bumper & rear driver-side window is missing.  The front windshield is cracked, but all other glass besides the drivers passenger window is in good condition.  Comes with extra windshield and rear axle assembly.  This is an excellent restoration project for your true SAAB enthusiast.  Any other questions, feel free to call me in the evenings or weekends.   I have had this car for six years, but other projects force this sale.   More pictures are available upon request.

1972 SAAB 95

This wagon has spent its life in the semi-arid climate of southern California and for many years it was stored in a barn under cover.  I bought it a few years back to restore and I've been slowly bringing it back to life ever since.  Now, it's time to let someone else finish what I've started. 

The current engine and transmission are from a ’72 Sonett that I bought from a guy for parts.  He'd had Bud Clark rebuild the whole drivetrain about 5000 miles before he smacked a light pole in a parking lot.  Both the transmission and the engine are in excellent running condition; the trans has a very low-mileage ring and pinion which was replaced during the transmission rebuild.  Carb is a Weber 34ICH, with most of the vacuum plumbing sorted out.  Manual choke, starts handily every time.  I’ve replaced all hydraulic components with the exception of the hard brake lines.  NEW parts include (4) tires, clutch disc, clutch master, clutch slave, brake master, wheel cylinders, calipers, pads and shoes, front hoses, and all ball joints, bushings and tie rod ends that were worn.  Front shocks are Koni and work well, rears are stock levers and need to be rebuilt.  The dash pad is practically like new and most of the seat vinyl is excellent with the exception of the driver’s seat bottom which is split.   The plastic coating on the rear deck is sun damaged in spots. 

There is NO ROT anywhere on this car.  There are a few very minor surface rust spots that could easily be cleaned-up by hand.  The underbody and rockers are totally solid.  All-in-all, if you ever wanted to restore a 95, this is the one to work with.  That's exactly why I bought it.  Now that it's running, and mechanically sound, attention can be turned to the cosmetic issues.

Needs:

  • Exhaust from midpipe back

  • Interior door panels redone - the backer board is broken in spots, the panels are currently out of the car

  • LF fender and turn signal assembly took a minor hit before I bought it -- a replacement fender is available

  • Body attention -- the clearcoat is peeling in places and there are quite a few little dings and dents

  • Rear shocks, leaky and bouncy -- they are rebuildable

  • Dash clock (missing)

  • Rear brakes drag a bit - it's likely just a weak return spring, or the e-brake mechanism is sticking

  • Windshield gasket and trim

  • Driver's seat bottom needs repair

1961 SAAB 93F

I have been thinking about selling my 93F for a while and now it will be offered for sale as I do not feel that I have the time and or patience to do a complete restoration as I had intended to do on this car.  Here is the skinny on the car:

It has sat for approximately 28 years under cover and has little to no rust and no known perforation.  There are a few very small bubbles on the body where the left rear fender joins, and there has never been any rust repair.  Body straight, all glass good.  Both doors dented, but again no rust.  850 engine and 4 speed were installed before car was parked and both believed to be good, engine free, but I have not run it, base engine, single carb.  GT750 interior panels, good in rear, door panels rough.  Car has a 96 GT750 serial number plate and is titled as a 1961 96 GT750.  Has the twin pipe GT or Monte exhaust system.  Mint 93F owners manual and the cool gas cap with the add oil gold sign attached.  Some extra spares.  Missing coil/ignition switch and the 93 emblem from trunk.  Car was running and driving when parked years ago.  Came from the Rick Wolf collection in Oregon, I bought it from a guy who bought it from Rick and hauled it up to Washington.

1966 SAAB 96

This would be a nice project car for a Saab collector.  The car is complete and original.  I have started the motor and cleaned the fuel tank but I haven’t driven it because the brake system needs to be bled.  This car has a 850cc three cylinder motor with three carburetors & manual transmission.  There is no major damage on this car; the worst dent is on the right door (see photo).  There is no rust at all, front seats are in good condition, rear seat and door need to be reupholstered.  It will also need new carpeting.  The VIN number is 371769.

1973 SAAB 96

  • 114,000 miles on the odometer, but not original engine

  • Engine runs extremely well; doesn’t miss a beat

  • Transmission a little noisy in second gear

  • Very small oil leak

  • Electronic fuel pump installed

  • Speedometer cable recently broke

  • Isn’t currently inspected, but passed fine the summer before last

This is a California car that I bought and drove cross-country in 1985.  I drove it for 1 year and parked it in my Dad’s barn.  It was made roadworthy again 2 years ago and has been driven in the summer months and stored in a barn in the winter months.  At the time of the purchase, it was cherry.

Cosmetically, the car has minor dings and a dent in the passenger side door.  In need of a new paint job. The upholstery on the seats had been redone and are still in fantastic shape.  The headliner was redone, but needs replacing.  The rear seats are in great shape and show no sings of UV deterioration.  A Blaupunkt AM/FM/cassette with equalizer has been installed in the glove compartment. The speakers are ADS and are mounted on the doors.  Stereo kicks ass.

Deal sweetener:  will include a set of Sonnet soccer ball wheel and lugs with the deal.

If you want a great driver that really turns heads, this is the car.  I can e-mail tons of pictures and even a windows media video.

1967 SAAB 96

My beautiful, white 1967 SAAB V4 with 135,000 miles is for sale.  I needed a second car to haul my kids around in. I have owned it for 4 years and have driven it daily.  This car has never let me sit, has ALWAYS started, never overheated, and runs incredibly!!  

The heat works excellent with manual valve under the hood, brakes work great too. All the windows are in perfect shape and function as they should, all gauges work excepting the clock.  All dash lights function, too.  New tires in the past 2 years, new front resonator and manifold pipes.  Recent spark plug wire set. The interior is decent and the body is a B+ with little rust.  A few scabs here and there have been repaired along the way.  Looks like the original paint.  Someone repaired the passenger rear panel along the way too.  Driver's door has an impression / dent and a few small pieces of trim were off when I bought it.  Silver tape takes the place of the chrome trim in the pictures and has been this way since I bought it to keep out water etc.  New valve cover gaskets were put on at 126,000 miles.  I rebuilt the brake and clutch master cylinders a year or so ago.  New oil sending unit.  Comes with some spare parts as well: fan bearing, jack, spark plug wrench, thermostat, brake clips, points, oil filter, car cover, spare tire, hubcaps, owners manuals, and service manuals, misc.  Free wheeling was welded before I got the car.  The transmission works great!  Like all old cars, it leaves a little oil on the garage floor but nothing serious.  Doesn't smoke and neither did I.  No glove box.  Car has been put in the garage every night here in Pennsylvania since I bought it.  

Buyer must pick it up here in PA.  I wouldn't recommend a multi-state drive although it does hold it's own on the highway. The longest highway trip I took has been around 50 miles.  Feel free to e-mail with any questions.  I will call you back.
