Minneapolis Street Sightings: Saab V4 wagon

Wow. This Saab is insane. For starters, I almost never see classic Saabs, much less of this vintage. What's even more amazing, is that this example is a two-door wagon, which was never officially brought to the US. To add rarity to the finding, only 110,000 were made from 1959 to its demise in 1978. I've never seen one in person, not even at any of the prestige vintage European car shows I attend every summer. So to see one on the street in the Seward neighborhood was simply that much more jaw-dropping. To date, I have never seen a double of it. I hope to see this one again, and have a longer conversation with the owner, who is an avid Saab nut.
