Knowing it started as a Saab 96 or similar Saab from the early 1960s, I found this "Saab History" website that says it had a Cd 0.32 (stock). I would bet this specimen might be a little lower (pun intended).

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
