Description

Same family of owners since new. The car was bought by the uncle of the current owner, back in 1993. The owner who was a Saab engineer had a lot of interest in Saab's historical competition cars.
After complete a rebuild and renovating the body work, the engine was up rated and all the original GT detailing was fitted including Halda Tripmaster, classic wooden steering wheel.
The car has only gone 7500 km since having it new interior (which matching to the original) it will be hard to find a nicer Saab anywhere!!

Facts about the model

From Howitworks.com:
The 1958-1967 Saab 750GT/850GT was the early Saab sedan in its hottest form. Introduced in 1958 with a more powerful (45 vs. 38 bhp) version of the 746cc two-stroke, the 750/GT/850GT featured a three-cylinder engine from the then-current 93 model. Styling was marked by the aerodynamic "humpback" look introduced with the original Saab 92 of the late 1940’s.
Construction on the 1958-1967 Saab was unitized, and the very strong body/chassis had unusually good corrosion resistance. Front-wheel drive was a novelty for the day. When Saab replaced the 93 with the 96 in the early 1960’s, engine size went up to 841cc, and the GT version continued, again with more horsepower (57 vs. 48).
Through 1960 a rather clumsy three-speed steering column gearshift was fitted, but later models had a four-speed floorshift transmission. Features on both the 750 and 850 GT (or Granturismo) were more complete instrumentation, including tachometer, plus fog lamps and special seats.
It was quite quick, all things considered, with the engine emitting the distinctive "popcorn popper" sounds at idle characteristic of two-stroke units. Like other Saabs of the day, it was quite roomy for its size. The 850-model (known as the Sport outside the USA) was briefly marketed under the Monte Carlo name (1965-1968) in recognition of the car's rally successes at the hands of driver Erik Carlsson.
The GT was discontinued once Saab adopted the German Ford V-4 engine for the 1995/1996 models in the late 1960’s.
