Thanks Sherwood, I'm going to finish off my glass of wine while watching that now :thumbup:

Thanks Rick, under closer inspection you see she needs a little tidy up, some faded paintwork, some respray here and there but she has had no welding and the only places where there is bad rust is at the bottom of the doors.

Can't wait get back out again now :D

Very nice, it looks in great condition, a real bonus of the hardtop is that you can have a roof rack. Yours looks really well proportioned with it on.

I forgot to take more photos :( :(

I clay barred, polished & waxed her today and it worked wonders on the paint work, there is an area of bad fading that I can't do anything about, I have a compressor and spray gun so I might have a go at a re-spray in that area one day.

I also changed the oil in the gearbox, will try and get the transfer box & diffs done tomorrow. I'm enjoying messing about with this car and am learning at the same time.

I will get some more photos up of her soon, I promise :D

By the way Sherwood,

I watched that 2-part documentary on Suzuki off roading, and it was great! Thank you!
