Martin Healey’s 1964 Saab 96
Describing your pride and joy as 'a rusty heap' may seem a little harsh, but that's what Martin Healey says about his 1964 Saab 96 short nose two stroke. That was before the restoration, though. It took Martin more than four years to source all the repair panels, insisting on only original Saab repair panels, which also meant shipping in the wings from California. Given this kind of attention to detail, you have to wonder if he was a little conservative in his description of its original condition. Looking at it now you realise that patience and determination in sourcing those panels was totally justified.
