Non-Saab Side Project – A Singer Sewing Machine Tractor

Singer Sewing Machine Tractor

I decided to do a few small side projects. Restoration tends to get a bit monotonous so it’s nice to do something else every now and again.

National Classic Car Day 2012 Finland – Saab 95 1961

A fellow Saab Club member Vesa brought in his 1961 two stroke Saab 95 Wagon – a seven seater. The car is in original unrestored condition except for some touch up paint in the engine room. Very nice patina for a 50+ year old Saab! Vesa has owned the car for several years waiting for… Continue reading National Classic Car Day 2012 Finland – Saab 95 1961
