A 7 seater, 2 door wagon, these cars had Saab's famous and fun 3 cylinder, two-stroke engine and "freewheeling" transmission. It seated 7 by having a little rear facing seat in the back. That seat folded away when more cargo space was needed. Cool little touches include a column shift and rectangular gages.
This car is a "barn find" that was last inspected (and presumably registered) in 1978. For a car that has sat for 30 years it's in pretty good shape. The seller states the car has some rust on the "lower panel" behind the passenger side door and there appears to be some minor surface rust here and there, but all-in-all the car looks to be solid and straight. From the pictures it also appears to be very complete. It should be noted that the pictures were taken in 2007, so ask the seller plenty of questions (and for recent pictures) if you're planning on bidding on this car.
This is a nice, possibly historical, old Saab that deserves a first class restoration.

I also have a 'thing' for old Saab's. Right up until the early 90's they were fantastic, even the odd looking Sonett, loved them all. This would be an amazing project, if I had the room, and the money, and an understanding wife, I'd be buying it!
What a great find. Let's hope somone buys it and restores it to its original glory.
