Peter Backström – Saab Owners Convention 2007
Posted on 25. Sep, 2007 by Ryan in 2000-2009, Company, Events
On Saturday, August 25th at the 2007 Saab Owners Convention in Troy, Michigan, Peter Backström, curator of the Saab Car Museum in Trollhättan, Sweden had a presentation that showcased cars in the museum’s collection.
This presentation was quite informative and spectacular, especially knowing that there are 108 cars that currently exist in the collection. I hope to obtain a master list so that I can share that with everyone here in the near future. One of my favorite parts of the presentation took place early on with the “surprise” phonecall made early on by lengendary Saab rally champion, Erik “On “On the Roof” Carlsson, via speakerphone to Peter Backström. Well done!
I invite you to enjoy this presentation that I filmed thanks to Tom Nelson of the Rocky Mountain Saab Club for sharing his video equipment to make this possible. I encourage you to post your feedback below after watching it.
