Artist's Comments

Dan Wing's Saab 96 GT850, a replica of Eric Carlsson's factory rally car from the early 1960's that won the Monte Carlo Rally twice.

This was at a Northwest Saab Owners Club event at the Paccar test facility in Mount Vernon, Washington.

Yes, this was before the car was redesigned to hold a larger engine in the future. if that makes sense. I.e., radiator still behind engine. It has a 850cc three cylinder two stroke with 8 moving parts!

This is a very well done restoration. There are lots of these cars in our club that are near perfect though. You would probably want to bring extra underwear. :)

Alot of the later Saab's had automatic oilers, I'm not sure if this car does. I seem to remember him saying he does have an oiler, although the car wouldn't have had one originally. Oilers shoot oil on the 7 moving parts in the engine. :D
