First you'll have to fill out the application form to sport wood, in triplicate, running it past the subcommittee on log usage, get a variance for non-uniform lengths of wood that is NOT black-powder coated or encased in white vinyl cladding, finally submitting for final approval to the HOA general membership's full…

According to earlier stories, Hedlund followed but called into State Patrol dispatchers for a marked State Patrol car for assistance, while following Branstad's SUV for quite a distance. Troopers were sent out to catch up to/pace the SUV, who then told dispatch (and Hedlund) that it was the governor. Yes, a trooper…

Actually, no... not in Iowa.

Not only is it now inflatable, but Branstad's hot air/gas inflated it fully.

11) Reversed license plate so people can ID you in the rear view mirror when rapidly closing in on cars ahead...

If the body shell's really rust-free, then it's not far off market price. Mechanical bits aren't impossible to find, interior bits are surprisingly findable and the vintage Saab community's very helpful/informative/connected. The V4 that you linked looks less honest than this stroker.

Mike Watt disapproves.

No, Sebrings/LeBarons are still several magnitudes worse than a Saab ragtop. The 'torque steer' fixes (rack, subframe braces) available in the aftermarket are inexpensive and very effective.

They sure did make a Viggen convertible. Loosy-goosy rack/subframe/torque steer + convertible bod = fun flexi-flyer!

The "Black and White Car Rental" he got after this one included a uniformed driver and red/blue lights on top.

The diagnosis for her "check engine" light? Of course... a bad cat.

Not to mention, its Karma would actually improve.

As Reborn said, it doesn't just look "factory", it IS. In the States, the Airflow kits were available as a dealer-installed option in that era on both classic 900s and early 9000s. Usually dealers installed them on non-turbo models to get them to move out of the showrooms. As a bonus, they were functional (i.e.…

One of those "can't hurt/might help" deals. Likewise, good luck with your LS!

My EGR pipe's remained reasonably quiet, but I've been chasing other exhaust leaks lately (where the cats meet the rest of the exhaust, plus need new cats). To get at the rest of the EGR pipe, I've read that some have had success by dropping the RH cat to get at the nuts on the exhaust manifold and not pulling the…

It seems to be more of a problem at the right rear corner than anywhere else on mine. Uneven stuff (say, like a line of bumps going in line with the direction of the road or a manhole cover) get that corner hopping like an unladen old F-350. I don't think weight's the issue, either, given that the car weighs maybe…

I loved the air suspension on my '93 LS as long as it lasted (my issues were electrical not struts failing), and also switched to conventional... whose setup did you go with? I went with Strutmasters' setup and have been disappointed with the spring rates and dampening, especially in the back.

Ford Escort Mexico... is that its porn star name?

Polo!
