The fellow who owns and drives this car is a friend of my dad’s. He has a tendency to build crazy things. According to reports this car goes pretty fast.

You sure on that speed?
According to the SCTA website (

)
the A/BFCC record is 305mph.

So not really, after re-reading the Missoulian article they have a lead photo of what appears to be the SAAB 96 but the car they are talking about in the article is not the SAAB 96 but a different car. I’ll need to do further research to determine how fast the 96 goes.

Yes but this information was only recently brought to my attention. Rex is not an attention getter so it is very difficult to find published articles about his exploits. I know he is still running the SAAB but not sure how fast the car is these days. I guess the 96 is a desirable car because of it’s small cross s ectional area and good aerodynamics .
