That's one nice looking sigma man, got any engine work done to it yet? Is it running bigger tyres on the back though? Or is it just my eyes lol? Cause it looks like someone walked off with your headrests too :lol:

sweet GE!
They're my favourite style Sig for sure!
Although I'd love to see a GE front on a Scorpion... that would look tough!

How is there just no vent though? it must have been removed then glassed or bogged over and smoothed out before the awesome orange paint job went over

When the bloke built it he did not like the vents there so he got them filled in he was very fussy.

I actually like the pursuit wheel look on the GE, have a set of turbos love them,
have a set of pepper-pots do not like them (Sam I am). Never intentionally
bought any of them were on cars we bought.
.
Like the four round head-light look on the GE do not like the single big rectangular
head-light on the Sigmas but do like the four rectangular head-light look.

Yeah COBWBS, I ditched the vents down the C pillars too. I welded steel in, nowhere near as neatly as yours mind you :roll:
They were just a rust trap in mine.

Beautiful looking GE - inspired me to resurrect mine to something of its former glory.

yeah actually i liked the steel rims better than the turbo rims... although the steelies would look even better if they were gloss black with silver lip :)

I might paint the pursuit wheels but i am looking for a set of center caps too. As for the 4 rectangle headlight GH model their not too bad as i have a soft spot for factory turbo's but i still think that the GE is one of the best models made.

yeah totally agree about the GE front, I need new front guards for my GH, and thinking about getting all the stuff to change it to a GE front... GH aint bad though, just not as good.

Just call the wreckers, there are to stud patterns for SAAB before pre 1986 and after 1986.
Do you happen to know what year they're off?
