Have some "unknowns" or it appears to be some "irregularities" of a Model 96:
Info:
Date of manufacture: 09/1970
VIN #: 96606345
Engine #: 153609
V4 Engine Color: blue
Trans #: 157321
Date of manufacture is 09/1970, but VIN # indicates model year 1971.
Per Jack Ashcraft "Maintenance and Overhaul of the Saab V4 Engine", a 1970 "year of car" has a black engine and is 1500cc. The 1971 "year of car" has a black engine and is 1700cc.
Engine # indicates 1500cc per Jack Ashcraft literature, but the engine color is blue vs. black as noted above
Could the Saab 96 I have be a 1971 model with a blue color (1500cc) engine?
Thanks for your input...
