Throughout its life span, the Saab 96 and its station wagon sibling, the Saab 95, had the gear lever mounted on the steering column. This became an increasing rarity in the auto industry during the 1960s and '70s, but was an appreciated feature among rally drivers who could change gears faster than with a floor-mounted lever.The gearbox originally had three gears, the first unsynchronised. Later, a four-speed option, with synchromesh first gear, was offered and the three-speed was phased out. In order to overcome the problems of overrun for the two-stroke engine, a freewheel device was fitted. This was retained in the four-stroke variant, until the end of production. In later models, it could be engaged or disengaged by a control in the footwell.On Aug-17-12 at 10:03:53 PDT, seller added the following information: The free wheeling device works just as it should. Works fine.On Aug-21-12 at 02:35:03 PDT, seller added the following information: I could deliver to Oakland or Long Beach, California for International shipping, inquire.
