Saab Sonett (1967)
for sale

Price: US $500.00

Description:

Sonett II V4 #305 is one of the first 70 V4s which were manufactured with the Sonett II trim, including wood dash, low-back seats and drilled spoke steering wheel. This vehicle is disassembled and the chassis sandblasted. The original interior was modified to brown/tan. It has severe rust damage to the floor, inner rockers, inner fenders, doors and trunk floor. There is only side glass. The unique parts of the early V4 are here including drilled steering wheel, low-back seats, wood dash and vinyl covered aluminum dash pad. Door panels and other interior are all very rough, however see picture of the door panel top trim which is the original vinyl covered wood. The fiberglass is all present including primed hood and door skins (note 305 marked on inside) and vents, and the rest of the body is original and shows no evidence of damage. The rare tail lights are here. The photos show a variety of the other parts of the car, most of which is present. A set of soccer ball wheels, pictured, will be on the chassis. The motor and transmission turn freely, no idea of condition. Brakes, discs, drive shafts, starter, wiper motor and mechanism, piping, radiator, door hardware including rare inside handles, shift linkage, wiring harness, bumpers and front trim all included, most fairly rough. The headlight trim rings are good but no buckets. The original grill is very good.
There is no title, I have only the last plates known to be on the car, Vermont 1996. There were no titles in Vermont for 1967 vehicles. There is considerable paperwork with the car, showing that it was owned and prepared by famous Saab racer and builder Jack Ashcraft in the early 1980s, including his drawing of the paint design (see photo) and pictures of the car as built. He also installed unique air intakes to increase ventilation, showing as the opening in the left front wheel well.
