Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.25) based on 494 votes
This gorgeous vintage classic has all original parts. The engine was started and kept running a few weeks ago. but ideally the car needs about $1000 in work to get back on the road. according to legendary Saab expert Bud Clark of J&B Imports in Orange. CA.  

Here's the initial work recommended:Clean carburetor
Adjust valves 
Front brake pads service calipers 
Replace rear brake cylinder
Adjust clutch 
Replace battery 
Lube. oil filter 
Electrical inspection**Please read entire listing carefully**The strong and solid body is in great condition. Interior condition is a bit mixed. but could be easily restored. Original seats are in fantastic condition.  
4 speed manual shifter on steering column.  

Currently registered as non-operational. but would function as a daily driver if restored and maintained.  

This model is incredibly rare. and the number of running models is decreasing every year.  

Priced to sell quickly. These models sell for $20. 00 or more when restored.

I love this car. but I moved and now have limited space and time.  
If you're unfamiliar with the model. I'd suggest a little research. These cars have a very cool history.

NOTES:

1.  I've advertised this vehicle as the Deluxe edition based on my mechanic's assertion. as well as several vintage Saab experts. who have verified that this is in fact the case. I am not an expert on this model year. and I can not personally verify this information either way. It is not my intention to be deceptive nor misleading.
2. The undercarriage does have some rust. including one area on the front passenger floor which needs repair. or the pan may be replaced. Although there is rust on the pan. I am told the sills. rockers. joints. etc. are fine. so any work needed regarding rust should likely be focused on the pan. Again. I am not an expert. and I'm simply attempting to provide an honest assessment based on what I've heard from the garage and experts.
3. As advertised. the car technically starts. It started up and ran at the garage when I had it transported there. The engine seems fine. Currently. however. the garage informed me the carburetor needs the maintenance described above in order to hold running status on its own. and it needs a battery replacement.
4. Please feel free to contact me via eBay with questions. If you intend to contact J&B Imports directly. please be a very serious buyer. and please *only* speak with Bud Clark. He is the expert on these models at J&B and the car was under his care. The garage has received quite a few calls regarding this vehicle. and I would like to minimize the hassle for them. Thank you.

5. It has been brought to my attention by someone who has not seen the car that it's theoretically possible the seats might be imitation leather. rather than actual leather. I have no way to confirm at the moment. but either way. the seats are in nearly flawless. top-notch condition.

6. I've been told by another expert who has seen the vehicle that there's been one matching repaint at some point in the past 46 years. There are some small paint blisters on the lower part of the driver's door.

7. The car has been stored in an indoor. climate-controlled space during the past four years I've owned it.

8. The title is clear but might not be on hand by the end of the auction. due to a recent move. I do have DMV paperwork to prove I own the car. and Form 227 can serve as the legal title transfer. For nervous bidders. I am happy to verify ownership. identity and clear title with DMV in person or on your conference call to them for the winning bidder.

9. A spare tire and the original jack. which is color-matched to the car. are both offered with the sale of the vehicle.

10. Please only bid if you are prepared to win!
