Yes but also something for my son and daughter to help me work on. Learn some skills etc. Good excuse to buy a welder too.

My grandparents had one of these down in Texas; it's what I learned to drive manual on when I was 11 or 12. Love them.

Those little samurais are super capable, remember seeing them in the bush on Vancouver island frequently. Take care of the rust and you're golden.

Rust should be fine. I may take the body off, sandblast, rust proof. Not sure how far i'll take it.

Plans to start are:


Getting it running, fluids changed, do a carb swap with a toyota 3K carb. Make sure everything works.

Then SPOA 3.5" lift kit and 31" tires. Front bumper with winch. Stereo, lighting, interior.

Panels can be bought to swap out the rust.

I think I’ll call it project Swamp Ass.

I bought a lil mig welder. There’s a bit of rust as you can see.

[SJW]

Bought an alternator and a carb rebuild kit. Moving the suzuki from the shop to my garage hopefully this weekend. Wifey gonna shit but it's my garage.

So i'll rebuild carb, install alternator, drain gas and try to fire it up. If it fires then it's game on.

Toughest part I found on sheet metal is burn through.
Learned patience and letting the metal cool off between welds.

I'm having thoughts of just replacing the entire body with an aluminum body from a place in Kelowna.
