Ross,
It looks like you have a stock '82GL. It's funney how Saab got rid of their older parts inventory for the 99. They simply re-introduced older parts into production on trimmed down models. As far as the VIN # change goes I think I have the answer. I have looked into getting a Mini. The Mini's as well as other small cars from Europe, don't conform to U.S. safety standards. Unless the car is 25 (might be 20) years old it will be crushed upon arrival to the states. I think your VIN was changed for that reason, although it wouldn't have been needed for a 99 or any other saab.
