I kind of just bought another saab. I overheard a guy talking about selling his daughters saab and I told him that I'm a saab enthusiast and just like that in the afternoon I had bought it.
A 2006 9-5 vector, 2.3t 185hp, i payed equivalent of 500 usd for it.
The exterior has seen better days but the interior is like new and it runs and drives great.

I would love to do a discreet T rod with a saab engine, using the 3 cyl 2 stroke would be so much fun.

I testfitted the fenders and body, there's lots of bodywork and alignments to be done. I'm inexperienced with metalworking so I have a lot to learn.

Hi all. New to this thread.
This is my 1990 Miata in Mariner Blue. I've owned it for about 7 years now.
I unfortunately haven't taken care of it as much as I used to, but I hope one day to try to replace a lot of the rusted bits and turn it into something nice. It has about 142,000 miles and is a short nose 1.6 that definitely has seen better days. Also has a lot of cosmetic problems, including lots of dings and dents. Though all that doesn't stop it from being something that I can full throttle everywhere, chuck around street corners super fast, and still get over 20 MPG while doing it, lol.
Only mods I've done is that I've been through three exhausts. Originally a silly straight pipe which was awful, a Tsudo Catback that I ran with a test pipe, and now I have a Yokohama catback that I run with a relatively new cat (Colorado emissions). I actually really like the sound since it's beefy and crisp without being too raspy (if at all), but it's also not too loud.
I also have the TireRack C1 wheels. Back in 2017 or so, I was inspired by another car that had the 7.5 width C1M version and 215s that was lowered, which has a clean fit. Though I unfortunately just got 7 inch C1s with a hub ring and 205 DZ102s. Would love to get some 8 wide and 225s assuming I can fit them, and probably some 200-300 TW tire instead.
I would like to probably put a 1.8 or 1.8 VVT in it following the advice of Car Passion Channel, and do some super charger. Rotrex would probably work best but of course a jackson racing intake-side would be dope if I can find one/pay for it. Would be nice to see it do low 200 hp with some wider and stickier tires, plus some suspension (still running KYB OEM replacments).
I also used to be pretty active on ClubRoadster, though I haven't since I haven't spent much time on the car. Though I'd like to chat over there again.
Went for a wash a couple days ago.
Here's some older photos from a few years ago:

Long time no post.
Here's an update on my 1927 model T restoration.
The engine came nicely together and now sits in the frame, looking so good.
Most recently I installed kevlar linings on the transmission bands and installed them on the transmission drums.
Drums from bottom to top, brake drum (big one), low speed drum in the middle and reverse drum at top.
