Diamond in the rough. I'm not sure, I don't know Sonett's that well, but the nose has been modified to be full tilt, and the pop up headlights eliminated. Kinda sweet really. Also both bumpers removed and body filled.

You could certainly start with worse but make no mistake this car is in somewhat rough condition. There are several places on the body where previous repairs are evident, and just places where the gel is bubbled for some reason or another, like on the front hood where there is a seam running the full width of the car. The rivets are now bubbling under the fiberglass. Maybe that was part of the mods to make it a one piece tilt nose, not sure.

Rust in pan and particularly the passenger side rocker.

Interior tolerable, but both door panels need some refurbishing, passenger seat has a few tears. Carpet must have been replaced. Headliner is falling down but not torn up. Dash pretty decent, gauges look pretty good.

This car has been sitting for a number of years. The brakes and clutch are frozen. Currently the passenger front wheel is stuck, I'll try to free it up. Exhaust was rusty and got ripped off winching the car up onto my trailer (whoops). It was pretty much trashed anyways.

I put a battery in, hooked the engine up to a remote fuel tank, and it fired up immediately. Sounded pretty good, but loud with just an open pipe, settled into a smooth idle. Seemed to rev just fine. I only ran it a few minutes, while there is some antifreeze in the header tank, not sure if the engine is full, probably is. Oil pressure light and the alternator light both go out immediately upon firing up. Turn lights work, interior light works, wipers work, radio works, no gas light works, gauges in general seem to work. I did not get the blower or headlights to work. Brake pedal frozen so I can't say if the brake lights work. The added on gauges seem to work. Oil pressure showed 30-40psi, vacuum gauge moved appropriately. Temp gauge did not move, but as I said, I did not run it long.

Tires hold air.

Windshield has crack in lower left corner. Other glass is good, door glass crank up and down.

If I wasn't tripping over cars all ready I'd fix the hydraulics and drive as is (also with a muffler). I'm not saying everything else is 100%, but it does seem doable.

Have a good look at the pictures, I can get more.

Thanks for looking. What you see is what you get.

Victor Muller to pay Sweden back taxes for Saab work

Thu, 03 Oct 2013

Victor Muller, Saab's CEO from 2010 to 2011, has been ordered by the Swedish court to pay the back taxes he owes the country for his work at Saab, Autoweek and Volkskrant report. When he was the automaker's CEO he received a salary of about 8 million Swedish Krona ($1.25 million), which was recorded as a reward for consultancy work for a company in the US that Muller owns. The move allowed him to evade taxes for awhile, but the court has ordered him to pay taxes on his full salary.
Muller, who is also CEO of Spyker, and two other Saab executives were accused of accounting fraud in May, which took place in 2010 and 2011. According to reports, Muller maintains that he is not subject to taxes in Sweden.

Koenigsegg plans a ‘CO2 neutral’ hybrid supercar

Fri, Feb 1 2019

Fresh from receiving a 150 million-euro infusion from National Electric Vehicle Sweden, the Chinese-backed company that bought up Saab's assets out of bankruptcy, supercar maker Koenigsegg has signaled just what it plans to do under the new joint venture. Christian von Koenigsegg gave an interview to Top Gear in which he said he wants to develop an all-new supercar to sit below ultra-exclusive models like the Agera RS and Regera, priced at around ˆ1 million (about $1.15 million) to grow sales from 20 a year into the hundreds, because "our brand has outgrown our production volumes by quite a big margin." And it will feature a novel, "completely CO2 neutral" hybrid powrtrain using the "freevalve" camless combustion engine technology the company has been developing in concert with battery-electric power. "Given the freevalve technology, we can actually cold-start the car on pure alcohol, down to -30 degrees Celsius, so there's no need for any fossil fuel mix then," he told Top Gear. "The idea is to prove to the world that even a combustion engine can be completely CO2 neutral." Von Koenigsegg previously hinted at the setup after talking about how his engineers were responding to Tesla's claims that its forthcoming next-generation Roadster would be capable of a 1.9-second 0-60 mph time. He further hints that the new hybridized supercar will look unmistakably like a Keonigsegg but be in a different segment altogether from either the Agera RS or plug-in hybrid Regera. Consider us very much intrigued and eager to hear more. Meanwhile, Koenigsegg has said it plans to reveal the successor to the Agera RS next month at the Geneva Motor Show based on a refined version of the same supercharged V8 combustion engine. The new joint venture with NEVS, meanwhile, sees that company take a 65 percent ownership stake, with Koenigsegg holding the rest and contributing its trove of intellectual property, technology licenses and product design. NEVS also gets a 20 percent stake in Koenigsegg itself. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

Motorweek looks back at 1983 Saab 900S

Tue, Aug 4 2015

These days, Saab is a zombie marque. Technically, the brand is still shambling around under the ownership of National Electric Vehicle Sweden, and there are continued promises of an electric version of the 9-3. However, we all suspect that the company is never really coming back, at least not as the quirky Swedish brand of the past. That's what makes watching this latest Retro Review of John Davis and the Motorweek crew driving a non-turbo 1983 Saab 900S so special. This is a great chance to see Saab still alive and kicking. While not one of the more famous turbocharged examples, the naturally aspirated 900S is still a quintessential Saab in every other way. The reviewers definitely aren't sold on the looks though, and there are plenty of jokes at its expense. Although, only paying attention to the polarizing exterior styling makes missing the good handling and immense interior utility easy. Sadly, without the aid of forced induction, the 900 offers very lackadaisical acceleration. According to this clip, the sprint to 60 miles per hour is more of jog in a leisurely 12.2 seconds. At the brand's best, Saab provided the motoring world with an alternative. If you didn't want just another boxy sedan, the brand offered something like nothing else on the road. Plus, drivers found a well-tuned turbocharged engine that provided good performance for the day. It's a company worth remembering, despite the current state of things.
