This 1969 Saab Sonett II features fiberglass bodywork finished in gold and is powered by a 1.5-liter V4 linked with a freewheeling clutch and a four-speed manual transaxle. The car rides on mismatched 15″ steel wheels and is further equipped with Koni front shocks as well as front disc brakes. Inside, fixed-back bucket seats trimmed in tan vinyl and cloth are accompanied by a Simpson driver’s harness and a roll bar along with a Britannia steering wheel and a floor-mounted shifter. A Weber carburetor was installed following the seller’s acquisition in 2022, and further equipment includes an MSD ignition controller, an auxiliary oil cooler, and a dual-exit exhaust system. This Sonett II is now offered at no reserve with a Washington State title in the seller’s name.
The fiberglass body features a vented clamshell hood with a bulge and was refinished in gold under previous ownership. Further details include bullet-style side mirrors, B-pillar vents, and rear bumperettes. The seller notes that the right-side hood latche is broken.
Three of the 15″ steel wheels are mounted with 195/60 Blacklion Cilerro BH15 tires, while a fourth non-matching unit wears an older 165SR15 Winston tire with cracks in the sidewall. Each wheel wears a Saab-branded hubcap, and braking is handled by front discs and rear drums. Koni shocks have been added up front.
The fixed-back bucket seats feature tan vinyl upholstery with pleated cloth inserts, and they are complemented by color-coordinated interior panels and carpets. A Simpson multi-point harness has been added for the driver, and a fire extinguisher is attached to a polished roll bar out back. Further details include an inoperative Saab-branded clock as well as a heater and a passenger-side grab handle.
The three-spoke Britannia steering wheel is paired with a floor-mounted shifter. VDO and Stewart-Warner instrumentation includes a 120-mph speedometer, a 7k-rpm tachometer, and auxiliary readouts, though the seller states that all gauges are nonfunctional with the exception of the oil temperature, coolant temperature, and fuel level units. The five-digit odometer shows 80k miles, and approximately 25 miles have been added under current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.
The 1.5-liter Ford Taunus V4 has been equipped with an MSD 6A ignition controller as well as a Weber 32/36 DGV carburetor that was installed under current ownership. An auxiliary oil cooler up front is connected with braided coolant lines featuring AN fittings.
Power is sent to the front wheels through a four-speed manual transaxle with freewheeling capability. A dual-exit exhaust system was installed under previous ownership, and the seller notes that it hangs low.
The Washington State title carries an Antique brand.
