I can do body work fine...but I'm not sure how I'd do rebuilding an engine. I saw some kits on Summitracing.com, they ranged from $300-$500 Body work is completely different from building a motor.

Has it been rebuilt? You'll be lucky to find a cheap fox body with low miles thats not expensive, or a low priced fox body thats not completely rusted to shit. I'd at least go look at it I don't think it has been. I'd go to see it but my dad doesn't want me to get anything with high mileage like that Buy it and rebuild it. lol With as low as your budget is, your dad needs to realize it'll be hard to get a car with low mileage

How much you think a rebuild would be anyways.

Gotta convince the bastard I won't find a cheap one with low miles

I only like BMWs, Mercedes Benzs, Porsches, and Saabs Saabs are domestic... GM owns them. Technically they are European, but GM does own them and have influences and shares quite a bit with them. Leave it for Americans to get into someone elses busines and screw it up Actually if you knew shit, you'd realize that GM owning them has produced little changes to Saab at all. As is the same for other GM owned european makesSorry that I don't sit at home and read up on American influences in the European car market

Saabs are domestic... GM owns them.

Then why did you post an ignorant statement? Its not even hard to do 5 mins of research to show how wrong you are. Your an idiot, don't step back in here. Simple
Basically every Saab has its own platform, and the Europe division is very different to the North American division.
Even Australia has Unique GM platforms.
