So, I made the mistake of leaving the Saab at my place in Salmon Arm for a couple months while I was out of town. Finally made it back to my other place in Kamloops after being down in Vancouver for work and decided I would get the 900 towed from Salmon Arm to Kamloops to do some planned upgrades and maintenance. Pulled up to Salmon Arm this morning and decided there was no way in hell that was gonna happen...





Guess the winter plans for the car are now on hold until spring. It's not just snow socking that thing in; the top six inches is basically ice, not snow.

To dig out the rest of the car is probably an all day task.

Fender liners are pretty thick I guess. I did a loop from downtown to Lonsdale on the highway, on to the Second Narrows and back downtown...no issues as far as I can tell. Also keeping lower speeds, just waiting to get my bumper back

Thank-you! I always wanted a red muscle car (pony car? well whatever it is).

It's got some get up and gallop but it's equally fun cruising in 5th gear in the city, going with the flow of traffic turning 1800 RPM.

Hope to see it at a meet or something one day. Or when I order parts for my E34 Lol.
