This is a pretty amazing car! Its just about as non-Saab as you can get, but I respect anyone that can complete a project like this:
V8 468RWHP and 415ft/lbs. It comes complete with an airflow kit, (if I am seeing things right it has an original "SAAB airflow" badge!) SAAB louvers on the rear hatch, and it even has a wheelie bar on the back! I would hate to break this guys heart showing him my tiny Saab 4cyl that is already putting out 476WHP. :) I guess he came up with a very unique way of getting around Saab's unusually weak transmissions, which I suspect to be originally made from cotton balls and #1 recycled plastics.
With the amount of cash this guy must have invested I think $18k to be mildly reasonable for the right buyer. I could do without the interior that slightly resembles an episode of Barney, but the idea of this car puts a big grin on my face!
I was thinking of putting a Saab motor into a Subaru but I never thought about a Ford in a Saab I guess if the platform is bullet proof it must be exploited.
