Here we have a 1971 Saab 95 V4, once the very best, now just a shadow of it’s former self. This amazing Black Saab 95  is equipped with a completely refurbished Ford Taunus-sourced 1,498-cc V4 engine that here rocks the modernity of fuel injection and electronic ignition.

It’s is also blown – and not in the rod through the block fashion, but by a roots-type kompressor proudly punching through the pointy part of the car’s hood like a fist of fury though Ikea particleboard. From the front that blower with its double barrel sawed off intakes, along with the ominous black paint, gives the car a whole lotta’ Mad Max appeal.

Pop open either of the side doors and you’ll be confronted by an interior that’s again mostly stock, but that contains some unique add-ons – you know, so you can pick it out from the crowd. First off, there’s a red anodized baseball bat clipped to the driver’s door.

If you like entertainment options that don’t include the blower’s whine, there’s a ceiling-mounted 10″ TV screen hooked up to a DVD player too.

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.
