picture of my old pulsar and my new project

Here you go for anybody that doesn't know my old pulsar here's a couple of pictures.




And a couple of the new project.





Plans for the Saab are to have it fully restored once my house sells, I'm in the middle of a divorce at the moment so I'm going to spend 15k have the Saab done up and modified to around 350 bhp to celebrate my freedom lol.

Looks like a beast of a pulsar what sort of bhp was it .... did it get broke for parts ?..... nice to see some old school projects being done regardless of the make

Robs old car, it was 517 bhp and it scared him because he Is a 6'7" girl.......lol

Get your facts right I'm only 6ft 5" and it wasn't that it scared me more the thought of losing my licence and dying was a secondary thought I suppose it was far to fast for the UK roads, I think the real reason I got rid of it was I was sick to death of spending money on it, It had taken over 60k in ten years don't forget, At some point it had to stop. But I do regret not having it now if I knew I was going to be getting divorced a few years later I'd of kept it, I miss the thrill of planting my right foot in the carpet and going into warp speed lol.

You know I feel the same way about every single 3 spoke other than Saab aero 3 spokes I love them they suit the car, If I could have some made in 17" I would, They're just so easy to keep clean.


Rob

good to see you on here rob

the pulsar was an animal I would have imagined shame you broke it but if it had to go it had to go and was the only way you was ever gonna get any real wedge back on it

saabs bring back bad memories for me at Bedford autodrome last year as my then pulsar was blasted past by a 500 odd bhp saab 9000
it made my 370bhp look like it was going backwards lol
was talking to the guy that owned it and they seem to be very tunable lumps which don't cost an arm n leg

yours looks to be a goodun, why did you ditch the z czr?

Well it was yet another thing my wife didn't like so I sold it to get something with more than two seats then she also hated the Saab they decided she hated me to and left , My god I'm glad to see the back of her but if it had happened a few years ago I'd still have my pulsar or my Z maybe both lol, So from now on I'm going to do what ever I want drive what ever I want when ever I want to do it lol, Anyway no point moaning about what I've lost life moves on mate.
