Saab 96 1966 for spares

Tommi Järvinen 19.8.2006, 23:33 MiscellaneaOne Comment

More spares A couple of pics of the 1966 stroker I just bought for spare parts (It was not expensive, the guy was happy to get rid of the “junk”). The body is shot, but a great deal of the interior is usable. That’s the main reason I bothered to …

Part 21. Miscellaneous stuff

Tommi Järvinen 27.7.2006, 22:21 Saab 96 Sedan 1964One Comment

The project has been on hold for the summer (too much stuff to do, places to go to, etc.). I managed to get to the Saabclub summer happening, which was great. Lots of Saabs, new and old. I sold a bunch of 99 stuff and bought an equal amount of …

Door trim repair

Tommi Järvinen 5.7.2006, 22:28 Past carsLeave a comment

I have never done any upholstery stuff, so I started sort of small. I decided to fix the door panels that were a terrible mess. The original panel on the left, and the one I made on the right. Close enough. The fabric part (imitation leather) was in pretty good …

Part 20. Crankshaft renovation

Tommi Järvinen 3.7.2006, 22:02 Saab 96 Sedan 196415 Comments

Here’s a few shots about the crankshaft renovation and a few words on the differences of the “regular” and Sport-crankshaft: The crankshaft renovation was done by a fellow Saab-enthusiast Lasse Peltola. Many thanks to him for outstanding work. I’m really sorry if the explanations are a bit hard to follow. …

Tommi Järvinen 30.6.2006, 20:16 MiscellaneaOne Comment

Here’s a few pics of a Saab 96 V4 1967 we picked up for my friend Vesa. The 1967 Saab 96 is the first year with the Ford V4 engine. The previous models were all two strokers. The body is in terrible condition, but all parts are in place and …

Part 18. Cabin

Tommi Järvinen 27.5.2006, 21:41 Saab 96 Sedan 1964Leave a comment

Some progress again after a lengthy break: The whole floor was changed earlier which was a major operation. Now it’s getting the finishing touches before painting. Below is a pic of the floor as it was originally. Not much metal left underneath the paint… Corrosion was sanded off the roof …

Part 17. Fitting some parts

Tommi Järvinen 5.3.2006, 21:46 Saab 96 Sedan 1964Leave a comment

I’ve had a bit of break from the project, but it’s sort of starting to pick up again. Here’s some pictures of fitting the bumber and finalising the fitting of the bonnet and fenders. Unfortunately all pics were taken with inferior equipment. Passenger side was pretty good, only minor hammering …

Part 16. Radiator

Tommi Järvinen 23.1.2006, 21:40 Saab 96 Sedan 1964Leave a comment

A few shots of the radiator my father fixed. The radiator was in moderate condition, but a few attachments had been broken loose, so he tinned those in place. It was ofcourse put through a parts washing machine before that. Afterwards it was further cleaned and then painted black. Looks …
