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. The first “project” was to clean up an old Monitor blow torch I got. It was relatively simple. I took it apart and …
A few photos from last wee kend.
I was going through a few storage boxes at home and found a bunch of Saab promo postcards and photos. If anyones interested the price is 3 € per card + postage. The cards are a little larger than the standard postcard size. Send me an email if interested: saabisti.jarvinen@gmail.com …
I visited the biggest classic car show in Finland – The Classic Motor Show.

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 …
