and sold mine for a paltry sum considering the new parts and overall condition of the car. Sad to see it go but sometimes you just have to move on. Other posters are correct, it's a ticking time bomb and if some of the big jobs come up, it's thousands not hundreds to fix. Car's get old, rubber parts dry up,seals,bushings,belts,hoses....rust sneaks into areas that you have no control over...fabric wears out...glass gets pitted...paint fades...take my advice and move on. Don't expect to get much more than a very small fraction of what you put into it or what emotional value you have with the car back for payment. Cut your losses and deal. regards, Saabless not in Seattle.
