The trip to Trollhättan started on Wednesday from my garage at Nokia, Finland. I drove my two stroke to Turku where I met Tikkis and Sami who brought the V4 Rally on a trailer. The V4 was offloaded (we left the trailer at a fellow saab club member Tero Setäläs …
I decided to put a trailer hitch on the two stroke. Basically just in case I need to take something bigger to a club event. I had an original Saab 95 trailer hitch that I did not need so I exchanged it to the 96 model with a fellow Saab …
As I promised in the previous post – here’s a bit more info on what we did to fix the fuel issues on the two-stroke: So – as we suspected the fuel intake pipe in the fuel tank had become corroded during the long period the car was stored outside …
Yesterday we had the Old And Classic Saab Meet at Hyvinkää. I and a fellow two-stroke saabisti Vesa participated. I took the white ’64 and Vesa brought his very original condition 1961 Saab 95. Last weekend I had to replace the complete fuel system for my stroker (including the fuel …

Since I left the Sport seats to be upholstered I kind of got more interested in maybe trying that stuff out myself. As it happened the local adult education center here offered a course in automotive upholstering basics. Or rather it was a workshop where you could do your own …
I found two Saab Sport seats earlier but they were in a bad shape (re-upholstered badly). A fellow Saab Club member Briitta promised to sew new covers for me. It took a while but the seats are finally done and I put them in the car already. Here’s some photos …
I wrote earlier that I put a fog light on the two-stroke. Actually I think the technically correct name for it is a ditch light. (And I remembered the brand wrong – It’s Johnson, not Marchall). A ditch light is basically a driving light aimed at the right side of …
Now that I have been doing a little more driving with the two-stroke some more little issues have surfaced. Here’s some fix ups and photos: Windscreen rubber seal is leaking (and the rear window also). I removed the aluminium strips to be able to lift the rubber a little and …
