SAAB overcomes difficulties to restart production
Could this have been what caused the delays?
From Ward's Auto:
"Swedish auto maker Saab Automobile, struggling to regain its financial footing after breaking off from longtime parent General Motors 15 months ago, restarts its hometown assembly plant Friday after nailing down a new investor.
Saab expects to produce 100 cars, its first lot of new builds since a cash shortage halted parts deliveries and suspended work on April 6.
Its production pace will increase in the coming days, the auto maker says.
Saab says its current order book calls for the production of 6,500 cars in Trollhattan.
“We have gone through a rough patch in recent weeks, but Saab is back in action again,” Spyker founder and Saab Chairman and CEO Victor Muller says in a statement."
