High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Saab Monster was an experimental car made by Saab in 1959. This project was part of Saab`s work in motorsport and the need to derive more power from their two-stroke powerplant. It consisted of a `Toreador Red` Saab 93 with all excess weight removed, including the bonnet, which was replaced by a plastic one. The engineers then installed two transverse 748 cc two-stroke, three cylinder engines, in a `split in-line` configuration, driving the front wheels through a modified clutch and gearbox assembly. There were two distributors and an enlarged radiator.
