you appear to have invested quite a bit of money in your Saab, much of which you may be unable to recoup (a $3k paint job doesn't bump the car's value $3k). this is the nature of the used car world; just because you put a ton of money into a car doesn't mean you can tack it onto its price, or its value is going to buck the market trend. and that trend is this: as a car ages--just about any car--its value declines despite upkeep.
in seattle, an '88 SPG w/168,000 in "Excellent" condition is priced by Kelly Blue Book at $2,520 (private sale) or $3,595 (@ dealership). as a comparison, a 900T of same vintage & mileage but w/o SPG is @ $3,195 (dealership). it's worth noting that there is NO salt here.
