Better late than never! I took my time uploading these, but here we go – some images from the Saab Club of Finland winter event 2009.
Saab Club of Finland displaying a few cars at “Talviheikki 2009” event. Some footage of setting up and of the cars. For example: Saab 95 1961, Saab 96 Monte Carlo 1966, Saab 96 V4 1980, Saab 900 Aero 1984, Saab 900 Turbo 16 Cabriolet 1986 (Pre-series!), Saab 9000 Aero 1996 (MapTun), Saab 96 Sport 1964, Saab 9-5 Griffin Edition 2009, Saab 9-3 SportCombi 2009.
The Saab 900 Turbo 16 Cabriolet is a very special car. It is one of the seven hand assembled Cabriolets that were made before the actual production started. It has the US type headlights as the cars were intended for US market – instead this one stayed in Finland for testing and development purposes.

Saab 95 two stroke 1961
what should I pay for a 1964 or 65 saab? We are currently driving a 1999 9-3.
Very hard to say – depends a lot on condition and model (base model or maybe sport/monte carlo).
I’d say… project condition anything from 0 to 1000 €, driveable 1000€+, good around 4000-5000€ for base model (more for restored/excellent original/concourse condition). Good Sport/Monte propably starts where the base model prices end, expect to pay 10 000 to 15 000 € for good ones and more for race history or special interest.
Prices vary accross the globe.
Here’s good example from BringATrailer: http://bringatrailer.com/2011/01/21/1968-saab-96-v4-2/
It’s early V4 – but late two-stroke and early V4 compare pretty well price wise. Sold for US $8,600.00 (around 6200 euro)
Also, you may find the cars cheaper and easier to find in Scandinavia and more expensive / harder to find in other markets.
Hi friends,

Thank you and best regards

Hi Luca,
I think your best bet would be to keep an eye on used cars in Sweden http://www.blocket.se and maybe http://www.tradera.se (Swedish eBay). We don’t have many Monte Carlos in Finland, so they are hard to find here.
Best regards,
Tommi
Also, posting a “want to buy” ad on the Saab Club Sweden forum might help. You need to be a member to get access.
