We are mentioning this because several folks have asked the question. However, the vehicle does have a legitimate VIN#. Back to the fun! Gas is expensive, go racing without spending a bundle on race fuel! This 3 cylinder, 2-stroke race car can make it happen! This rare bright yellow 1960 SAAB 93F vintage 2-stroke was originally built by Craig Disney and Randy Cook. Car was built for Craig to drive and compete with Randy in Central Florida Region Vintage SCCA events. During construction the car was fitted with fuel cell, master battery cut-off switch, roll-bar with added driver's side bar (roll-bar is stamped with SCCA Central Florida Region ID#, as noted in the SCCA logbook), front disc brakes, dual master cylinder, 5 point racing harness, SAAB Sonett driver's seat and steering wheel, and outfitted with 4 speed transmission and type 3 rear drum brakes. Car was also lowered during this period. Later updates done by Craig were the addition of the VW Scirrocco cross-flow radiator, electric cooling fan, Pertronix ignition with Accel supercoil and VW Super Beetle brake master cylinder. Present reconstruction of the car includes installation of 850 cc premix engine, new clutch disc, refinishing of hood, roof, trunk lid, right rear fender, and left front fender with acrylic enamel paint, and 4 new white vinyl blank number circles. I welcome any questions about the car. I currently possess too many vintage SAAB race and street cars! One of the SAAB race cars I own and personally race is an orange 1960 SAAB 93F #251, which I have road raced at Watkins Glen, Sebring, VIR, Summit Point, Road America and Mid-Ohio. I also drive the SAAB at Pennsylvania Hillclimb Association events which include Giants Despair, Weatherly, Pagoda, Duryea, Rose Valley, and Polish Mountain. The orange SAAB has also been hillclimbed at Hershey Vintage Hillclimb. Therefore, my experience enables me to answer any questions you might have on this beautiful yellow vintage SAAB race car. beautiful yellow vintage SAAB race car. One side note about the yellow SAAB: The Central Florida Region SCCA logbook was issued and signed by Ed Diehl who is a well-known GM factory 1960's Grand Sport Corvette driver.
