I shared this to the media section months ago. Sorry for being really late. Also to celebrate the back in production in limited time for the new ones in japan recently :)

So this is my ride. Rare from 1970's and requires many overhauls. Ads are rare so here is the upside down version.

Version 1.4.2: "Big"-engined model, mainly for export markets. New grille with lower mounted headlights. Metal doors available as of 1979, as well as a longer pickup version (LJ81). Year of production: 1979

Original F8A — 0.8 L (797 cc, 62.0 x 66.0 mm) SOHC - this was Suzuki's first four-stroke car engine. Tweaked a bit by ECU computer. Bit economical, nothing special.

Added some AC, and some phone hinge (not visible and removed, hence w/o accessories). Power steering also added. Result is the accu and some other parts must be replaced.

Other nice pitcure goodies :)

A weird-ass, old micro-SUV I've never heard of, which almost looks lowered and with Recaros.. Awesome! :)

Kei SUV. Power is probably at arround 30HP but no idea after i added computer on it :D

But really, this thing is super light! 600-700 kg i suppose. Turns well and the 4WD-2WD interchanger is still works :)

@Dennisch Yes. Though previously needs quite a recondition, especially the engine. But the end result is really my favourite.
 
That's very cool. Gravel tires with awesome Sparco wheels, what more could you want?
My dad had a Suzuki SJ410 flat deck. Was terribly slow but it could go most places larger heavier 4WDs couldn't go due to it's size and weight.

Seems like it :P Maybe not really a good idea for this SUV. But the handling is nice though. Super light and unbelievably tiny.

The spartan interior with Recaro seats and rally wheels makes it look like a race car. Nice =)
