The next car on the chopping block here is my 1990 Saab 900 Turbo Convertible. This is a project or a VERY good parts car. I figured I'd see if anyone else wanted or needed it before I dragged it to the back 40 to languish with the other donors.
2.0l 16V/Automatic
134k miles
Clear KY title ready to transfer
It has been sitting since 2014, but most of that time was indoors.
The fuel tank is nearly full of BAD gas. It needs a fuel pump and ignition switch at very least. I bypassed the switch and had it running on starting fluid a few months ago, but haven't touched it since. The engine sounded healthy.
Tires are ancient but hold air.
It has been resprayed in the factory color and the paint is actually pretty good.
Headlight adjusters are broken on the driver's side. Common C900 issue.
Interior is very decent with no real damage. Leather hasn't ripped and is still fairly supple.
The top is junk. I'm keeping it covered in the meantime, but am out of indoor storage.

How has no one bought this? FOR SHAME.

Agreed. Especially since the price is OBO.
I wish I was more mechanically inclined. I love the thing, but too afraid of how much work it would take to get it roadworthy again.
In reply to Jordan Rimpela :
I already have 3 SAAB's and one is a red vert?

Heaven help me if you still have this in January.
Would make getting those SPG wheels easier...
In reply to Powar :
Honestly if it was a manual I would probably have it stashed at my dads place by now.

January has come and gone and its still here and I still don't need it. One of you should bring a trailer and $900 and relieve me of it.
Try listing it on Saab groups on FB and Saabnet

Looks like a new top can be had on eBay for ~ $400. Tempting.

I've done that with many others and could do it again if I needed to sell it. I have no interest in dealing with the public. It can sit here until someone wants to recommission it or I need parts from it.
