Of course you do! Old cars & Mopars go hand in hand.

Knowing you like to restore old cars, Mopar jumped into my head. I have a 72 & 73 Cuda in need of restoration.

How bad are we talking? The Cuda's are well sought in the mopar community right now by collectors, especially the high optioned hemi ones from 1970 and 1971. Yet a Cuda is a Cuda and they are all well respected and adored by mopar freaks with anything from a slant six to 340's and all the way up to the hemi's. Why don't you pm me some details about the cars. I would love to hear about them.

Were they not originally made in Sweden?

The name SAAB is actually an acronym. It comes from "Svenska Aeroplan Aktiebolaget" which means "Swedish Aircraft Company."

Have they always been owned by GM?

Mostly Saabs are produced overseas.

They got bought about GM a few years back. Yet mostly they are produced now in The USA, just like a lot of the cars we buy from Toyota, Honda and the big three
