The 1969 Saab 96 V4 “Rally” I bought a few years back (is it that long already…?) is advancing. The corrosion repairs are underway again. The car is in bad shape and many of the original pieces are missing – like the original engine and gearbox for example. I have …
I have done a few small upgrades on the two-stroke. The trunk floor has been pretty ugly all the time – one half unpainted, the other painted yellow! So I decided to fix that. I have done some winter driving now and found out that since I don’t have front …
It seems I’m a new owner of a 1978 Saab 99 Turbo. I picked the car up from eastern Finland the past weekend. The Saab 99 Turbo was the first mass-produced Turbo car in the world and one of the most iconic Saab models ever made. So when an opportunity …
I am seriously thinking about going to the Saabfestival in Trollhättan (http://www.saabfestival.se/) this year. And driving there with the ’64 stroker. It’s not a bad trip, 200 km drive in Finland, ferry over to Sweden, and then some 400-500 km drive (depending on the route) from Stockholm to Trollhättan. Tikkis …
It looks like the International Saab Club Meeting 2013 official pages are now open! I would have loved to attend but unfortunately I just don’t have the time this year… But for those interested check the site: http://www.intsaab2013.com/ It seems to be somewhat “work in progress” at the moment but …

I’ve been thinking about buying an action camera for a while now. Just so I could make some nice Saab-videos 😀 I finally decided to buy the new GoPro Hero 3 White Edition. There’s a few different versions of the Hero 3 camera for different uses. I could have gotten …
Well, I certainly know what I’ll be doing through the Christmas holidays 😀 Two awesome Saab-magazines – the Bakrutan of Saab Club Sweden and Saabisti of the Saab Club Of Finland – arrived on my doorstep just in time for the holidays. A total of 148 pages of Saaby stuff …
I have finally realised a dream of mine… Until now I have rented a small garage space for my Saabs. It had no heating which pretty much meant that all projects were on hold during the winter (for about 4 to 5 months a year!). This fall I decided to …
The Saab Club Of Finland organised a little parts market today and of course I went to visit. I wasn’t really going to spent any money (since my bank account already lightened quite a bit two weeks ago when I bought a couple of needful things for the Sport…). But …
