This 1959 Saab 93b is a great mix of early clasic Saab bodystyle and more powerful GT850 power.

Described as mechanically sorted with a newly rebuilt freewheeling transmission, the seller says it’s ready for long trips at freeway speeds but advises that tires need replacement first. Rust is an issue, but is said to be moderate. Find it here on the seller’s own page in Oregon for $8,800.

According to the seller, This Saab 93 is in excellent running condition with extremely low mileage for a 56 year old vehicle (38,000 miles on the body, 13,000 miles on the rebuilt GT850 engine, 100 miles on the rebuilt GT850 transmission).

The car is an unusual hybrid that, is a combination of the classic SAAB  93 and  fun-driving 1964 GT850 inserted into the most beautiful and quirky of all SAAB bodies- a 1959 Saab 93b. The interior looks to be holding up pretty well also, though a pretty nasty stain on the rear bench is distracting. See the whole gallery of this car.

For over 15 years, Goran Aničić has been passionately focused on Saab automobiles and everything related to them. His initial encounter with Saab cars took place back in 2003 when the first Saab 9-3 and sedan version were introduced. At that moment, he was captivated by the car's Scandinavian design logic and top-notch engineering, and everything that followed stemmed from that first encounter. Later on, through his work at the editorial team of the Serbian automotive magazines "Autostart" and later "AutoBild," he had the opportunity to engage more closely with Saab vehicles. In 2008, he tested the latest Saab cars of that time, such as the Saab 9-3 TTiD Aero and Saab 9-3 Turbo X. In 2010, as the sole blogger from the region, he participated in the Saab 9-5ng presentation in Trollhättan, Sweden. Alongside journalists from around the world, he got a firsthand experience of the pinnacle of technological offerings from Saab at that time. Currently, Goran owns two Saabs: a 2008 Saab 9-3 Vector Sportcombi with a manual transmission, and a Saab 9-3 Aero Griffin Sport Sedan from the last generation, which rolled off the production line in Trollhättan in December 2011.
