1969 SAAB 96 V-4 & Baja Rallye Winner Lot of (2) original vintage advertisements.
DESCRIPTION:
It faces weather other small cars shouldn’t face.
Rain slicked roads and high winds are enough to make the driver of an ordinary small car wonder what he’s doing behind the wheel. But not in a SAAB, the out-of-the-ordinary small car from Sweden.
SAAB is out of the ordinary because of front-wheel drive. Because SAAB has front-wheel drive it doesn’t push you around the way other small cars do. It pulls you around curves. Corners. Out of skids. And out of trouble.
Front-wheel drive coupled with SAAB’s dual diagonal braking system (safest on any car) gives incredible control and traction in any weather.
And SAAB’s 4-cycle, V-4 engine lets you go from zero to 50 in ten seconds. Hit 90 flat out. Cylinder disp., 1,498 cc. Compression, 9.0:1. Max. output, 73 H P (SAE) at 5,000 rpm.
As an optional extra, our new and powerful V-4 engine has a LIFETIME GUARANTEE.
So don’t let the weather get you down. Remember that you can’t drive a better built small car to save your life.
SAAB - You can drive it like a big car.
SAAB leasing now available nationally. Unusual overseas plan: Free shipment from Sweden to P.O.E. East Coast.
THE R.A.C. RALLYE. 114 STARTERS. 30 FINISHERS. 1 WINNER. SAAB.
"The hardest and toughest competition ever driven.” That's what the motor experts called this year’s RAC raliye. And attesting to the fact was all but 30 of the 114 starters that fell by the wayside.
There were faster cars than SAAB, sportier cars than SAAB, entered in the raliye that included 1,200 miles of special speed stages as part of the course, back and forth across Great Britain. A rallye that ripped up cars for 40,000 kilometers. But SAAB V4's took both first and second place overall.
How come? How much did SAAB’s front wheel drive have to do with keeping it from skidding on some of England's roughest forest roads? How did SAAB’s true aerodynamic styling help make it first past the checkered flag? These are questions best answered from behind the wheel of a SAAB. Get behind one.
LATE NEWS FLASH: SAAB wins the "Mexican 1000 Rallye” — the Baja Desert - the first passenger car across the finish line. And in record time.
