Reviving The Saab 900 Turbo: Project 1991 Ep1 - The Return Of A Classic!

It's back! A 1991 C900 Turbo 5-Speed I previously owned returns for work on the convertible top, interior and light mechanicals. The guy I sold it to did lots of work, but the car is now back for finishing touches before we send it off for someone else to drive and enjoy. Join me for a quick look around and follow along as improvements happen.

Missed you Lee!

[@j.manning2759]

Glad you're back! I learned so much from your old 900 videos

[@1984konin]

Hi, good to see you!

[@carsandtopgear]

What an awesome surprise, welcome back!

[@LeeKelso]

Yeah, it's been a while. Several projects have accumulated so there's plenty to be done. In addition to this 91, my 94 Ruby-colored 900 automatic turbo has needs, and the 94 CE T-5 conversion is getting a wideband 02 sensor to help it run better. Plus, a 2002 BMW 325 convertible has joined the 2001 Z3 in the German fleet. I'll be busy.

Great to hear & see Lee Kelso back to doing what he does so well. Look forward to see the detail - recording what gets done (with the tools) as you are doing it.

[@LeeKelso]

Thanks! This will be my first time working with the convertible top. Should be interesting.

[@chetR1t]

Keep going, Lee! This is awesome!

[@LeeKelso]

Thanks so much!!

[@RetrocarStyle]

[@LeeKelso]

We're gearing up a new season of SAAB Talk LIVE! Will you join us for an episode?

[@RetrocarStyle]

@@LeeKelso I'll see what I can do. Id sure like to!!

[@SaycoPworrell]

Alright alright, better late than never! Lets get back to some SAAB loving!

[@TheBTG88]

If not done already, the MCS short shifter should be considered mandatory.

[@LeeKelso]

Man, I agree. The good news is, I believe that's already in place. I installed one in my 94CE and love it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rYe2lZ2FjpaNpdksi=feeYA8z-JbF6qthw

[@aleksandr_718]

This thing is clean, but 3-spoke wheels would suit is better in my opinion

[@gregj7916]

Wheels are glitzy….

[@prawnstar9213]

You can get a whole new to; for about $1100

[@prawnstar9213]
