1973 Saab Sonett – extremely rare – project, not restored – original – barn find
This is the perfect car to contrast in the classic car market. Meanwhile the design classics Saab Sonett are very rare and hard to find. Most of them are offered at high prices and in full restored condition.
This one is original and still unrestored and therefore not expensive. The Saab was stored for a long time and has to be wake up very carefully. It is a real barn find.
It’s a project for restoring. It has underbody rust and already has been partially welded.
The interior is not too bad but needs work as well.
The GFK body is not damaged except a few spots and the paint is still pretty good.
The V4 engine runs perfect as long as you fill gas into the carburetor (see video). Due to the long standing time it seems that the tank/fuel-lines are clogged and therefore no fuel reaches the carburetor. The transmission goes in all gears and the clutch is still good. The brakes must be done as well as some suspension parts.
Because of its rarity this Sonett is a worthwhile project.
