1973 Saab 99 GL Coupe.
This is the first Saab I have seen at a show which wasn't a 96, and I was actually quite surprised to stumble upon what looks like a well looked after survivor, the 99 being one of the hardest Saabs to spot now, but the front valance does look a little suspect in places, otherwise it was largely spotless and a testament to the owner, who did seem to be rather proud of his car. Those front seats are a really interesting bit of design work, I wonder how comfortable they are? Odd to think that the same basic design, with a few cosmetic changes, ran for another two decades.
