That's a tall-windshield 96, so it's at most 42 years old (1968 was the transition year) and must have started life as a V4-- the handful of '68 two-stroke cars were built using the remaining short-windshield shells.  All the more reason, of course, to congratulate the team for wisely swapping a Mighty Three into it.

Re: New England Über Gallery now up!

Actually, that "96" is a FrankenSAAB built from a bunch of random parts the dude had left over from his ice-racing collection.

Re: New England Über Gallery now up!

Is that a 50s thunderbird...with a turbo diesel engine?

If so, that's not stock.  No, sir.

Re: New England Über Gallery now up!

What? I was told it was all stock when I bought it. I'm gonna demand a refund!
