Cant wait to get back from my deployment, always loved Saab but never owned on but upon my return in a few months ill be coming home to a beautiful lightning blue Viggen. Stationed down in Fort Hood
3.5 months. I am actually bout to buy a Viggen that's up by my brother in South Carolina and have it shipped. Always wanted a Saab but never got one until this if the deal works out.
Their great cars the viggen if stock would be about 230bph. I have to do a few modification to get mines up their. Their are rarely any rice burners who want to waste their gas trying to keep up the handling is amazing and in my opinion looks better than a beemer.
Yay im excited to get back and be able to drive it. It is completely stock. I don't want to do any modifications but at the same time I do like to have some extra power, but from what ive read ill start off with the steering rack brace and things along those lines.
yeah gonna be fun, cant wait to go to some of the "Saab fans of texas" meets. Hoping to go to the drive in Oklahoma. Not sure where to go with the mods bit. whether to do some small here and there or wait and stock up and do a good over haul of most the bits. but I guess time and money will tell haha.
Yeah that would be awesome I have been learning more and more about saabs and also I'm a heavy equipment mechanic so I have alot of tools and my dad is an ASE master technician so I have someone to bounce ideas with.
Sounds like a plan, Im a wheeled vehicle mechanic, so I know my way around Humvees and military vehicles pretty well, but im sure the saab is a whole different beast. But ill probably invest in one of the Hayes manuals or what ever they're called and wanting to learn quite a bit about them in the process. I don't have any tools but on Fort Hood we do have a whole garage we can rent a lift and almost any tool we need for like $5 an hour. haha
Hello, I am in Austin. I just purchased my 3rd Saab... like tonight, I just purchased it. LOL! I have some kinks to work out be for it will be on the road but I am all about finding other Saab enthusiast.
