The restoration of the 1964 Saab Sport has to wait for a while but I couldn’t help fixing the wood steering wheel. I really wanted to hang it on my living room wall but it had to be restored and polished before that. Here’s some photos of what I did:
I was offered a 1964 Saab Sport. The car was said to be in poor condition but being a Sport I jumped at the opportunity to get one. The car has had a single owner from 1975. He started to restore the car in the 80’s, painting it black and …

I just stumbled upon this somewhere (can’t remember where). Anyway, I think this “96 V4 Extreme” looks pretty awesome! And by the pictures it looks like there’s a tech upgrade coming that will make it truly “extreme” 😀 Cool car, check the rest at Garaget.org: http://www.garaget.org/?car=121513&image=1721976
