SAAB 900 / V4 Interchange parts

A 1985 SAAB 900 has just turned up at my local Pick-and-Pull, and there's a sale this weekend to boot.

If the radiator and fans look okay, I'm going to pull them for my 96. I often see recommendations on the forum
for other interchange parts, but I can't recall most of them now. Anything else I should pull while I'm
there?

Re: SAAB 900 / V4 Interchange parts

This will shock you guys, but the '85 SAAB 900 that turned up in a Canadian junkyard turned out to be a rusty
POS. The radiator turned to dust in my hand. (After I removed it, of course.) Had planned to scavenge the one
remaining fan, but the screws were too rusty to unscrew so I took it as a sign and moved on.

I understand what you were trying to say, but I want to say here that a Saab *never* becomes a POS no matter its condition.
