also: http://uk.geocities.com/saab99tips/FrmSet/FrmSet.htm and: http://www.nospam.com/ 99's are pretty tough cars - youngest is 20 years old so obviously check for rust - door bottoms, arches, front floorpan etc. The last cars are usually pretty rust free though and have some worthwhile improvements.. Just be careful with 78-80 models - for some reason these have more rust than earlier and later cars....unforunately all the turbo's fall into this age! Mechanically the saab 2.0 goes on for ever but brake calipers usually need replacing.. I was running a 1975 model, still rock solid and drove like a new car! --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
