Hi Scotty. Your gut feeling is absolutely right. You won't find a '90 stateside. (Exept possible private imports?) Saab ended US export of Saab 99's in late 1980.
The Saab 99 changed name to Saab 90 in 1985. And got the redesigned steering shaft the same year. Old and new shafts are interchangeable.
It's not as straight as the 900 though, merely an improvement over the old 99. But one can clearly feel the difference.
S-wheel angle 99: 33 degrees.
S-wheel angle 90: 29 degrees.
Someone would have to rob a donor car at a European scrapyard, and send it to you. Unbolting is straightforward, but expect the rubber disc at the rack to give you trouble. Access is awkward.
The largest parcel I've shipped to USA, was a center console. Fairly light, and it costed 225 NOK. (25,20 $US)
Karl.
