The car was found in Gnarp, north Sweden. The guy who bought the car new passed away in 1986, since that, the car has been standing in this barn.
Saab 96 1967, one of the last two stroke cars Saab ever made.

Having owned a Saab back in the 1980's, I would be surprised if this one didn't come back to life with little to no effort. The Saab is truly a remarkable automobile, I enjoyed driving every mile in the two door hatchback I once owned.
A testament to just how remarkable the Saab actually is, I bought my 1985 hatchback used from a registered nurse in Florida, she was buying a new Saab convertible. The car had 107,000 miles on the odometer, none of the four tires matched, as they were all made by different manufacturers. I installed two new CV joints, a new clutch plate, four new Perelli Tires, and I drove it, drove it and drove it. This Saab was my favorite car, even after all these years.
PS: I never had the chance to meet the nurse who owned my Saab prior to me, but I always wanted to. She obviously loved her Saab, mismatched tires included. This is evident by her buying a second one.
Best Wishes to all my fellow Saab lovers.

Saab made very good cars, great quality and very nice to drive!
I stil have e Saab, but mu daily driver is a Mazda,
I had one too back in the day...I loved it!!
We had a few saabs in New England 60's and early 70's
Perfeito
I grew up with a newer version of this car. We had a Battleship Gray 1968 SAAB 96 with a Ford built V-4 engine. It was a very well built car and way ahead of its time (especially here in the US). I loved the 4 speed column shifter with its very precise shifting (American column shifters were very sloppy and often got jammed between gears). The “free-wheel” centrifugal clutch release was another great feature on this car, you could lock it out with a lever under the dash. Front wheel drive was quite unusual back then and it made that car great in the snow. The Ford V-4 SAAB used was an excellent engine, FoMoCo should have brought that to the US to use in their cars instead of that in-line 4 cyl they used. Neat car!
Beautifully designed automobile ♥️
Fantastiska räddare ni är av en ekonisk bil.
Tack för det å sååååå vacker bil!❤️❤️
This is in fact my deceased uncle's Saab. So what a coincidence I happened to spot this video. Have went with him numerous times in that car in the seventies...
Spännande! Jag skulle gärna vilja komma i kontakt med dig och höra mer. Vet ärligt talat ganska lite om bilen och dess historia.
@@Hampus_Granstrom Om du ger mig din mail eller mobilnr så kan jag höra av mig.
Min mail är Hampus.2001@hotmail.com, skicka ett mail med ditt mobilnummer så ringer jag upp.
This is such a cool story what a coincidence 🙏❤️
Great car, fun to see that you rescue it!
Ni har stött på en riktig bra guldgruva😍 ska bli kul och se när ni startar bilen :)
I have only ever seen one of these Saab cars on the Road here in New Zealand. It was a 1977 model in good condition. It stood out as it was being driven down the street, because of its unusual shape.
we used to call them upside down bathtubs
HI FROM SERBIA 🇷🇸 I have SAAB 9000 2.0 1992YEAR AND SAAB 9-3 2.0T 2001YEAR. ❤️
Scandinavian Trabant ☝️
Brilliant ! Surprised the wheels revolved, thought the brakes would have stuck on,unless the hand brake was off ! That will clean up well ! Lovely.

In 1984, as I passed thru Kota Bharu, Capital Of Kelantan, I saw a maroon colored SAAB. Right Hand Drive, unsure of engine model. They are good, but not really tropicalised like Japanese autos.
I sure like to spend retirement in summer and pottering around the yards and the poking around the well preserved structure of the barn, which accounts for the non rust of the SAAB. Restoration is the jewel of my retirement.
Congratulations on the find, original keys too.
Salud.
I watched first vid on the earlier 'bullnose' Saab some months ago. This vid came up and I decided to subscribe, because I want to see the progress of these beautifull cars of my childhood.

Nice rescue, I hope it finds itself back on the road :)
Had a friend he was the only Saab mechanic in south jersey usa. Incredible mechanic!
Hi, you have shown us two beautiful old Saabs in apparently EXCELLENT condition, will you be posting further videos if you intend to restore them? Thanks for sharing and best regards from Ireland.
I found a very similar looking Auto Union car several years back that had a 3 cylinder DKW 750cc two stroke motor in it. It was in excellent condition much like this Saab is. I knew a guy who drove Saab 60's model cars with the V4 engine and local guy drove an old Sonnet for a long time.
I'm waiting for the Next video. I LOVE the car. Arturo from Barcelona ( Spain)
That beautiful SAAB deserves to go a couple more kilometers. Congratulations for your dedication and work. Cheers from Chile, South América!. 👏
Fantastic find
How totally cool 😎 is this! I’d love this car! I even love the colour 😁
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻Good job!!! Hilsen fra Spania
What a glory! Good luck with that one, it looks lovely.
Incredible barn find, wish it was a Porsche or of that era, but still its a amazing survivor, please don't over restore it.
Looks in good shape. Should be easy to get back on the road in no time.
My passion! Congratulations ♥️
Great Resque Job.
Wow this my best friend Don's Saab. When we were 17 we drove all over Vermont skiing. Saabs also loved by North Country rural mail carriers who had to deliver on unplowed country roads. First FWD till the Tornado came along. The Saab could plow through the highest snow banks with only summer tires. They also had amazing heaters. Great memories, sad GM destroyed the brand and they went defunct.
The original had a 3 cylinder engine 2 cycle in which you added oil to the gas tank. There was also an optional 73hp German made 4 cylinder 4 cycle which we thought was the one to have.
I wish I had one, those are sharp.
I want one so bad.
Such a cool car !
Bra jobbat.
I had the same car but in black and grill was different ws a 1960 I believe. 3 cyl, 2 stroke, total of 7 moving parts in engine. Also had 3 speed column mounted shifter with free wheeling. So if going downhill rpm dropped to idle speed. Weird but very cool little car.
Mkt jobb ibland för att få ut en fin gammal saab. 😍
Sjukt att det gick att fylla däcken och att den rullade. Svensk kvalitet. Spännande att se fortsättningen
Men den har nog inte stått där i 36 år. Se reg skylten.
@@suggoz Vad pratar du om? Modellen på skyltarna kom ca 1974. Sök gärna på bilens registreringsnummer så ser du klart och tydligt när den ställdes av.
Swedish Trabant ☝️😃
@@Hampus_Granstrom 1972 ändrades skyltarna till den som sitter på bilen och det var som du säger långt innan bilen ställdes in i garaget 🙂
oh nice!!! great video and next startig:)
Хорошее видео, хорошая машина
now thats a real barn find happy motoring
Nice fiind 👍🤘
Wonderful🎉
I think this is a beautiful find, whom ever ends up with it. - take good care of her -

Awesome! It’s so small compared to the Volvo. Greetings from Holland.
Sensational
SAAB com um design muito bonito 🇵🇹
very good
5XSaabOwner: Where's the damn turbo LOL
I dont know what all the anti Saab propaganda is about.. especially when its from people who have never owned one.
My old man had a 1999 saab 900 the thing was solid.
I decided to follow in his footsteps and I purchased a 2010 Saab 93 Aero TTiD4. Such a fine machine it is.
Nice good job
Grymt fin!
Hur hittar du alla dessa bilar?
Tack!
Svårt att säga, håller ögon och öron öppna. :)
Let's just hope that there's no damage, done to this car; in spite of the fact that it hasn't been outside for a good long time. Did there have to be a drive way, laid out for this old timer Saab 96V4? It however still took a long time, to have it up and running again. ⌛️
Anche questo è un bel ritrovamento..ottima auto 😊
Kul bil att få följa i renoveringsarbetet.
Hur går det med din P1800, finns det någon video om den?
Finns ingen video om P1800an, den står och jag samlar delar till den. Ska göra klart några andra projekt först innan jag påbörjar den renoveringen. :)
I am 15 year boy and since childhood i dream of doing this things and even today😊
Excelente carro gran calidad sueco
Felistasiones a los grandes maestros mecánicos favulosos estraordinario maravilloso los mejores saludos cordiales dé la república de Chile
Incredible find! Having given it a wee bath, and looking over it, it would seem that you only need to change out a couple of parts and it should roar into life. This will indeed make a very interesting project.
What's great about this is that it seems like it was very well taken care of over its life when in use.
Very interesting indeed.. 😐
my grandfather owned a 2003 Saab 2 door convertible which he actually sold to someone else.
sweeden must be beautiful in summer
Whoa, Dad had a 93, and a 96!

Lataria tá perfeita
I like this car
Vilket tryck våga du pumpa i de gamla däcken? var försiktig med sånt, kan smälla
Ja det har du rätt i, var lite rädd att det skulle smälla när jag pumpade, därav hörselkåporna. Fyllde bara ca 1,5 bar, så inte superhögt tryck.
I like the fact you didn`t fully air the tired tires, i know they can explode, may explain the ear protection?! lol
Yes, always using ear protection when I air tires, they can explode.
Claes känner man igen.
Länge sen man träffa han.

Häftigt!
👍💪😍😍
Its a cool looking car.....untill you start it...... Just a moped engine?!? Just a Trabant ☝️😃 anyhow nice video. Greetings from the Netherlands everyone ❤️🙏
That engine looks like the Sport model, with 3 carbs instead of 1? If so, pretty rare. What a find and hope it's back on the road soon. There are still a few taking part in classic rallies in the UK, their distinctive "ring-a-ding" engine note and oily exhaust makes them stand out from the crowd. I owned a single carb model for a few years in the early 70s, fantastic to drive and my late uncle had a series of V4s before moving onto 99s and 900s. He said that the German built V4 engine was better than the UK type and they could be told apart by the position of the distributor, one had it at the front of the Vee and the other was at the back, I don't recall which was which, can anyone shed light on the difference?
synd att du inte berätta ngt om bilen eller prata osv .. annars bra gjort
Förstår vad du menar. Vid köpet/hämtningen visste vi egentligen inte mycket kring historien om bilen. Han som sålde den hade knappt koll på om det var en tvåtakt eller V4. Den köptes på en gårdssuktion efter ett dödsbo. Har lyckats tagit reda på endel nu i efterhand genom gamla dokument osv… Får se om det går att få med lite av det i nästa video om bilen. :)
Vdd raridade
Är den tillverkad 1967 är den en raritet då v4 motorn tog över det året. Troligtvis är det än 1966 som var osåld och uppgraderades till 1967.
Det är en -67, tillverkad i slutet av 1967. Hela bilen är egentligen en v4 till modellen annat än motorn och plåten under.
Is a good looking car for that environment
Carro bonito
Уникален автомобил.
vilken dröm!
BEAUTIFUL HUNT,,, WORTH SAVING IT... WELDONE
جميل جدا
I want it, but im in Florida
WOW
I knew what the key looked like
Nothing more swedish than a Volvo pulling a Saab
Jag hade en Saab 96 men ombyggd motorhuv . Ovala Ford Taunus ljus ( Thomas Bergelin) i Danderyd byggde den
A treasure car
Hoppas man får se resultatet?
Hur länge har den stått
Skulle vara kul att veta??
Står i titeln till videon, stått i 36 år. :)
@@Hampus_Granstrom vilken miss
Pleasepleaseplease....DON’T RESTORE!!!.....keep her as is.....fix what is necassary....AND DON’T TOUCH THE REST!!.....a restoration....or even worse...a ‘restoration’......would cost in between a fortune....or even more.
And rend you a car comparable to any fixed up pile of scrap.....maintain ORIGINALITY by not messing with it!!!!!....there is a fine line between making everything work...which is good!!....and loosing the patina.....which is a loss forever....
I agree 100℅ - U speak the Truth (I wish I had come across it!!! Most sincerely.
Look at the Sterings weel. There is an airplane in it.
Next pls....😥
There was another similar video on here but I'm sure the doors opened backwards !!!
Very early SAAB's had the Suicide door you mentioned. 😅
Saab pochádza z bývalého Československa z veteránu Java Minor a montovali sa tam motori 900 cm letecké je otom natočený aj film konštruktéri tam doniesli dokumentáciu ale začala vojna tak sa vrátili domov ale výkresy im tam nechali a svedi začali vyrábať a zdokonaľovať mal som takýto Saab len v predu boli obdĺžnikové svetlá a motor Ford 1500 cm...
