ok hears the problem, got two 91 turbos twins the ones thats just about all grey, grey leather, grey paint and grey aero wheels. identical twins only diffrence is one has a birthmark (pinstripe). Now the original one has a blown headgasket with 175k has a great body just a little rust on the rear passenger wheel well and the hatch. I've done a few little things to it including glass roof changeover and 7 inch double din tv screen with navigation.

Then comes the.... lets call it the long lost twin. picked this one up with 177k it had alot of work done already but needs alil bit more. including some rust repaired, brakes feel kinda funny like there grinding, blower motor stuck on hi and few other things that i can do myself that wood cost me almost nothing.

So what i need is the advice of all my fellow saabers as to what ya'll think i should do? i have family telling me to strip one and have parts for the other which is what i had planned on when buying the twin untill i found out how beautiful she drives. then me i feel like i should work on the twin get her doing good and then get the head gasket done on the original. i would prefer to have two of the same car because as we all know the 91's are getting very unfindable, and only god knows my chances of getting into an accident. im in love with the 2nd gen 9000's but i dont really like the third gen so thats why i would like to keep both of 91's. oh and to mention the original will also be needing a clutch job in a little while. so if any one has there opinion as to what they wood do in this situation to help me make my decision that would be great.
