Saab news from 1960

No "new" news about Saab today...

On the blog of Alexander Kreybig I`ve found a nice Youtube video about Saab from the 60's. It's called Aktuellt om Saab (1960) and is in Swedish. I have embedded the video below.



One of my favourite youtube video`s about Saab is the one of the Saab 95, but maybe that is because I own one.

Saab Car Museum reopens

As we all know Trollhättan City won the bidding in conjunction with the defense and security company Saab AB and the Marcus and Amalia Wallenberg Foundation. The partnership has offered 28 million for the museum with the complete car collection.

Earlier today I`ve written a date for the new opening. But unfortunately the info on my source (Innovatums website) was wrong and has been removed. There is no decision taken yet when the museum will be reopened. But they are working on that.

Decision about Saab before end of the month

The decision about the Saab car factory could come before the end of this month according to P4 West / saabsunited. We can write a lot of sense and nonsense about the 5 possible buyers, but Saab needs just 1 new owner. Lets stay calm and wait. We`ve worried a lot about the museum and suddenly it was saved. Let us hope this story repeats for the Saab car factory.

This afternoon I was at the maintenance shop of our local airport because my Cessna (dead battery). Saw the above Saab 91 Safir (PH-RLD) again, could not resist to make a picture. I hope the administrators did sell the Saab 91 Safir to the new owners of the museum (it was not mentioned on the pdf therefor I`m still a bit worried it`s sold separately).

New bid for the Saab car factory

New bid for the Saab factory
According to Dagens Industri there is a new bid for Saab, they do not mean the multi-billion bid from Youngman but an other European company. Frederick Sidahl, president of Automotive Suppliers, FKG has not given up hope that the Saab factory in Trollhättan can resume production "we have received prior notice from the administrators that they are working to sell Saab as a whole". This statement is not changed, he told Dagens Industri.

Saab Museum Gallery
Alexander has made a new Saab Museum Gallery, some pictures are old, some new, all of them a have higher resolution as the pictures in the earlier galleries he has made.
