This is my new 410 !
Just bought it as a complete newbie and wondered if anyone recognized it or built it so I can figure out what I need to fix it !

All I know is the reg was F515 SWC reg in 1989
Last mot expired Nov 2013
It has a 1.6 Vitara engine in it with an SU carb
5 speed gearbox - I assume 1.3?

Alloy deck with what looks like a red boat fuel tank under it with the standard tank removed.

Has aftermarket shocks and what looks like aftermarket bushes all round the suspension.

Guy I bought it from only had it a short while and didnt know much about it.

Just wonder if it is known on here or someone knows who built it !???

Hope you guys can help !

If it has a Vitara engine with 5 speed it's most likely a 413 box, there were some 410 5 speeds but they're rare.

Not seen that one before but looks good!

Any plans with it? Get it back on the road or just playing around?

Just for play days really to see if I enjoy it.
Have it a jet wash and got all the mud out !
At least no rust to deal with!
Need to get a starter motor and a set of front pads then see what happens !!!
