Jalopnik Honors The Saab 99 Turbo

1978_Sleeper_Saab_99

Jalopnik has honored a very special old school Saab 99 Turbo, which has been converted to the best Saab sleeper we’ve ever seen. By all outward appearances, this Saab 99 is a nicely maintained Grandma car. Underneath, it’s an all-wheel-drive, turbocharged, 700 HP terror machine capable of 9.8 second quarter miles. This Swede-built creation is likely the most ridiculous sleeper ever created.

These nutjobs took a straight-bodied Saab 99, stripped the interior and caged it, removed the engine and replaced all the internals then turned it around 180 degrees and mated it to an Audi 100 transmission and all-wheel-drive system, turbocharged the bejesus out of it and made everyone’s wildest dreams come true.
