Old saabs are kinda a niche market, but still, most people wont be able to tell if you bring everything back to stock and the car still runs fine.

as long as you don't fry valves or jack up ring seals, bringing everything back to stock and doing a tune up should be pretty idiot-proof. The motor may be a little worn, but not enough for joe consumer to really tell.
