Cheers. Bit jealous of where you are with your project, nice work.

Got some new wheels for the 95, Continental 5.90 and Michelin 6.40 cross ply tyres.




No worries, I have plenty better rims. Suspension will be raised a bit, see http://www.saab-v4.co.uk/speedball/topic.asp?topic_id=3574. I have 900 rear springs that I'm going to try as front springs and original 95 rear springs from Finland.

I work in the sunny North of the Netherlands (between the showers that is). Denmark is not much colder at the moment, winter lasted exactly one week this year.

He once emailed me "I have a 7000 euro offer here..and It dont make me warm..." Draw your own conclusions. The photos you posted are old, I've seen some of them before. I also have interior pics where you can see that a lot of bodgy welding has been done to it and that it needs a lot more to make it a solid car.

Having said that, I want that van!

This one is RHD and it went from the UK to Germany about 10 years ago, so could be the one. I know Nick Senecal had a 95 van, but iirc that was a '69 and this one is '70. See my original van topic for more pics: http://www.saab-v4.co.uk/speedball/topic.asp?topic_id=2078

It's in my workshop in the Netherlands and it won't come to Ireland in the foreseeable future I'm afraid. Gives me good reason to pop over to NL every now and then (don't tell my family and friends).

Love the old Saabs!
