  This 1973 Saab Sonett III is for sale in New York, New York for $11,000. The car called “SonaBusa” was built by Darryl Carl at his former company Albany Speed Shop in 2012. The factory Ford Taunus V4 was replaced by a 1.3 L inline-four from a Suzuki Hayabusa motorcycle. Darryl also converted it from FWD to RWD using a six-speed transmission connected to a 1980 Toyota Corolla rear end. It rides on a 4-link rear suspension with Wilwood disc brakes front and back.
Below are some older videos from AlbanySpeedShop YouTube channel recorded after it had been built.
