Saab 93B “Miss Piggy”

Saab 93B

The proud owner of this beautiful car was Sten-Arvid Larsson (before big restoration), and this is classic 1958 Saab 93 B called “Miss Piggy”.

Current owner invested a lot of work and effort into this car, because when car arrived at him Saab 93B was in a very bad condition. He got the car in 2003, and the car was purchased from Borås through an advertisment. He had only seen pictures of her before making the deal, and She was delivered to his garage in Perstorp.

Now, The car does not have any rust, because the car was “rust-renovated” and got new paint in 1979. After that she has been sitting in a cold garage until delivery to Perstorp.

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.
