A collection of donor Saabs on the forecourt. That looks so rustic that you wouldn't expect it in the Netherlands, but in England or France.
The location of the donor cars turned out not to be a brilliant marketing stunt, but simply the result of the layout of the plot. The owner himself experiences it as a lack of appearance for his company. Fortunately for him, the client looks beyond the picturesque 'still life with donors'.
Because behind the Varsseveld façade is a company that sells rare Saab parts all over the world. In fact, many of those parts are made by Onno Kempink's 'Classic Saab Parts'. Indoors there is repaired and restored where it seems as if the rare Saab two-stroke cars are actually quite regular cars.
And the competition numbers that we saw on a few of those brave three-cylinders? They were not ready for the show. Knowing more? Varsseveld lies beyond Doetinchem, in a region where a lot of old-timer blood flows. You can take a look at www.classicsaabparts.nl
