Description
Only a little over 100 five-door 99 Turbos were produced in 1978, and they were exclusively available in Cardinal Red, just like this one. Adding to the car's unusual history, it was registered in 1978 with a replacement engine. Unfortunately, Saab heritage records do not exist for these early Turbo models, so the story behind this replacement engine cannot be verified. Nevertheless, this car remains a rare and remarkable find, and is definitely worth preserving and renovating. Additionally, it comes with plenty of older paperwork and a handbook.
