Showroom Fresh 1977 Saab 99 • Jul 21, 2008

We cleaned off several pounds of mud and gravel so that our Saab could be put on display at our new office here in Holly Hill, Florida. The car looks a little out of place in a showroom—it’s much cooler-looking while it’s whizzing by at warp speed.

The Saab 900 Turbo brakes have been installed; we’ll be evaluating if they’re ‘enough’ brakes for our needs or if we should upgrade to Wilwood calipers.

Note: The oil-absorbing mat under the car was suggested by “management,” but since we replaced the axle seal, we’ve seen nary a drop from the car.

Hard to believe, but just a few short weeks ago, this car was at STPR.
