Is the Suzuki jeep before the sj the LJ and anyone got any pics or know how rare these are? Only ever seen one but it's been putting thoughts into my head. Mate has just recond it's an LJ and they did a 1600 crossflow conversion for them? Now i turn to your wisdom.  |

Looks like a baby International Scout to me. And thats a good thing.
Lil Jeeps can be cool. I even saw a series 1 RAV4 which had been done really well. Might require some latteral thinking but theres a ton of potential in something as boxy and off centre as these

Have a look HERE and HEREIf the body is OK then they are GREAT cars and can look SO cool if done right. Parts are getting quite scarce now and body parts are very tricky to get hold of - especially the metal (corrugated) doors... Here are some tastefully modded ones:   |

The only one i had seen had a hard back on it looked like a complete body one? Really feel one of these dropped rather than lifted may be on the cards for me. If a 1600 crossflow goes in how big is the 1600 sport ka lump  |

They're super cool but super rare ( even the sj's are a bit thin on the ground)
The diahatsu f50/60 is similar with diesel engines but they disolve like an asprin in the sea.
Cheap jeepness these days comes in the form of mahindras i'm afraid.
