NKC_280z Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 1974 Saab Sonett III. It's such a cool little car. It has a Ford V-4 from a forklift, and is made of fiberglass. It gets about 35-38 MPG. Best part is that I only paid 1,500 for it and it runs like a champ. I don't really want to modify a rare car like this. But I was thinking about making a custom "BRE" style duckbill spoiler for it. Any other suggestions would be welcome as well . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slownrusty Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 The Sonnet is one of the mosr peculiar cars ever made....I have a feeling there will be collectors items in the near future, hold onto that one, as its in great shape. Yasin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OlderThanMe Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 wow, thats pretty cool. sorta similar to the S30's Jon Except in half the size as an S30... LOL Remind me how they passed crash tests? The local volvo place had 2 of them but they were in shambles. I wanted to get one but they were too far gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravRMK Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Cool car. Just get some nice wheels, and drive it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NKC_280z Posted July 9, 2007 Author Share Posted July 9, 2007 Wow now that's a steal! Very nice. How does it drive? It drives like my 280z did. Kinda rough and alot of road noise but that can be expected out of a car that old. The tires are soooooo narrow with no room for improvement. You would have to hack at the fenders to get anything bigger or wider in there. That makes the car corner like crap. Not quite the track crusher but fun all in all.
