LJ10 owner in the US

Post by SuzukiTom » Mon Jul 14, 2014 2:35 am

Hello, new here from the US of A! I'm a long-term Suzuki owner, both 4x4s and motorcycles.
I was a 14 year owner of a '88 Samurai, that went from stock to modified rockcrawler during that period. Finally, someone offered me more money for it then I could turn down, so I sold it. Biggest mistake of my life!

So I filled the Suzuki gap in my life with a '72 LJ10, that was in decent shape for an assembled basketcase. Rust free, and most of the parts where there, just needed some lovin' to get it back on the road.

The white one is mine!

Anyway, I hope to get valuable info for my present and future Suzuki vehicles here.

Have a great one,

Hi, welcome to the club! Very nice looking LJ you have there!
Also I like the star trek/electrical pun in your signature ;)
