just info

It already has aftermarket tubulars. Sorry josh, I won’t say any more.

You know more about the Saab than I do. You're not doing anything wrong as far as I'm concerned.

I finished patching the floor pans, sealed the cracks with Seam sealer and painted everything with epoxy paint.

My spare tire came in today, so I mounted it on the rim and installed it under the back.

I put the rest of the carpet in and installed the interior. I also wired up all the lights, except the headlights. I have harnesses coming so I can run all 4 low beams and high beams without melting the factory wiring.

I also drove it to the gas station. The rear tires barely scrub the outer edge of the inner fender wells. It's slow to fill, which is a little annoying, but it also could have been a sensitive fuel pump handle. The flowmaster sounds really good, since I currently don't have the back doors installed yet, lol.

And now that it's dark outside, I can get pictures of the tail lights, brake lights and reverse lights. The turn signals flash too fast to get a picture.
