I recall a 9000 gull wing, but only faintly ... Do you have any information of links (or anything) about this C900 gull wing? You're not thinking of that Norwegian chap's "street styled" 99 are you? The SAAB CX ... Or was it the EX? http://www.pastonroot.co.uk/wright/saab1998.htm Here's a couple of ones: http://www.pjgh.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/saab/specials/pages/custom_convertible. html http://www.pjgh.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/saab/specials/pages/custom_john_sleath. html I like the B201 in the back of that FIAT Uno 8) Nutters! There was, of course, SAAB's own V8 currently on show at the Valmet museum in Finland: http://www.pjgh.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/saab/specials/pages/valmet.html#b202_v8 ...
