The “spare parts” engine (standard longnose engine) before cleaning (Thanks to Pentti Kostamo for this and other parts!). As I took it apart, I noticed it was in good condition (but dirty). I decided to fix it (a few problems with the carburetor, some missing parts) and use it. Now …

I don’t really have any decent photos of the current state of the project, but I took this series when the front wheel housings were being restored: These shots are from the drivers side. Large parts of the wheel housing had to be removed, as they were badly corroded. Also …
This is my other Saab-project – A Saab 96, 1964 (The last year this shorter “bullnose” model was made). It has an 841 cc, 3 cylinder, two stroke engine, that produces 38 hp as stock. (I have plans on spicing it up a bit though…) Unfortunately the engine on my …
