I am a saab enthusiast, and ever since I was little in the great white north, I loved watching the little yellow saabs running up and down the runways.

I picked up SFT #211, formerly Boston Logan (1986-2006), Albany (2006-2007), Ithaca Thompkins parts car (2007-2015) for next to nothing, but also as a stripped shell of itself.

My earliest photo shoes a basic beacon, but the ware shown in the pics show something else. Maybe a Whelen 9000?

I am hoping with some pics of other cars of the era and some photos of the ware, I might get some tips on what may have been there.

looks like they modified a strap kit for the mini edge above but im sure you can just bolt it through the roof if you go with the 9000 then id hook mount it...
