complete waiste of $$$ to fix it, just cal me before you sell it to him!!
Actually, go elsewhere for your work. If he doesn't like saabs then by all means look somewhere else. The car is DEFINANTLY worth fixing since it only has 120K miles on it & a good body!!!
I have always payed people to do work on my cars & 3 weeks ago & FINALLY got my hands dirty & swapped my bad radiator in my 88 SPG. Now my head gasket is leaking so I will be attempting this hopefully this weekend. In oyur case, for well under $500 in parts & several hrs of your time, your car be pretty much new again. If you don't want to do the work, find a real mechanic & not the one you have used!!!!!
keep it, it's a baby :o)
