Ford supplied this engine to Saab. By the way, what Saab models used the V4 that late?
Saabs V4 project started in 1965 and the Ford V4 was used instead of a 4 stroke engine called Scarab made by Ricardo Engines in England which was considered earlier. The V4 engine was used in Saab 96 that was produced until January 1980, the V4 became availible in the autumn 1966 (model year 1967). The V4 engine was also used in Saab Sonett II (except the early ones) and Sonett III.
