![]() Ursaaben, the prototype from 1947 was designed by legendary Sixten Sason.
For the members of Saab's veterans association, it would be a national disaster on the unique Ursaaben disappeared from the country. But now it seems the National Museum to be interested in the car, which could be worth 2 million.
Tomorrow, Friday at 12:00 is the time out to bid for Saab Museum's car
collection of 123 cars. Bankruptcy trustees have taken pictures of
every car in the collection, both the 50 fancy cars up in the museum's
exhibition hall and the other cars, the better or worse condition,
stored in different repositories.
How much the entire collection is worth, no one would say. But Ursaaben, the black, streamlined prototype of the first Saab 92: s, could be worth as much as 2 million. It's just in a single copy in the world. The task of figuring in bilkretsar right now. A functioning Saab 93 "kortnos", with two-stroke engine and freewheel could be worth between twenty and forty thousand dollars for an enthusiast. Saab 93 monster, built in a single copy of the motor designer Kjell Knutson, may not run on normal roads and no one can say what the right price in the monster is. But there is a unique car with two adjoining two-stroke engines that came up in the 223 km / h at best. Several of the later production cars are so-called concept cars that are only designed to be presented at shows. Other copies of the later models are fully functional cars taken directly from the assembly line. It's usually on the last copy of a particular model. Such cars can be worth a hundred thousand or a few hundred thousand dollars. But right now the focus is on Ursaaben, that is, the handmade prototype, designed by legendary Sixten Sason, which was completed in 1946 and was shown to the press following year. Ursaaben is an important part of Swedish design history. Sixten Sason listed as one of the pioneers of Swedish industrial design. In addition to all Saab models, he was also there and took out the first Hasselblad camera 1600 F, Husqvarna's best-selling motorcycle Silver Arrow and a range of vacuum cleaner models for Electrolux. It would be awful if Urssaben ended up in a wealthy collectors outside of Sweden, says former Saab engineer Olle Granlund, one of the members of the association Saab Veterans, to new technologies. Ursaaben has been in the Saab and Saab Automobile ownership in all years. The test was run a few thousand mil in the 1940s before it became a museum piece. It is not only Ursaaben that may be of interest Nationalmuseumskt. While other cars in the Saab museum may be encountered, but the National Museum's page you want is not currently comment on the data, writes TTELA. |
