1973 SAAB SONETT III

Upgrade, trong running Sonett.

Solid stock Sonett refurbished and modified to be a serious driver and good looks showstopper.

Engine compartment significantly upgraded for ease of service and looks.

Interior clean stock look with classy upgrades.

Body is "wrapped"in 3m flat black and carbon fiber vinyl

Custom made front and rear bumpers and rear "spoiler"

( SEE LIST OF MODS BELOW)

Very strong engine and tranny

Solid chassis / no rust - previous repair below battery is solid

All electronics are new upgraded replacements

( one negative - windshield wipers quit )

Base engine was built up at Bud Clark's shop in L.A.

ALL MODIFICATIONS AND CHANGES CAN BE REMOVE, O PUT BACK TO "STOCK"

All Jack Ashcrafts books and Saab shop manuals go with the car.

Most removed stock parts go with the car, lus extra doors and some glass.

While the car is a strong Sonett and capable of "driving it home, driving a classic car

across country is always a bit risky. additionall, f you want all the spare, ou will need to make arrangements to trailer the car and parts.

Over $20,000 USD has been spent getting the Sonett the way you see it.

I need to make room in the garag, nd the Sonett needs a new home to get driven more.
