Hi Everyone!
I am new to Sammy's and look foreward to learning as much as possible. I am interested in purchasing a used 87 Hardtop and would like to know what to look for and what a fair price would be. I am located in Canada and found one for sale 6hrs away. This Samurai will be used as a DD for now and eventually be used only for offroading.

Details:
171,335 km

Pics:



Also, would anyone happen to have more photos of this amazing Zuk?

Yeah thats a very clean tintop, I'd jump on it especially if it is your only zuk option.

I overpayed for my zuk, but it was my only option and I had to have a zuk, so I'm still happy.

Wow I missed a fellow Canadian's first post.....what's wrong with me

Welcome to the board there's not many of us floating around but we do add a bit of class to this place. ;D

Also you better buy that tintop before I get down there and get it ;D

I was just in your neck of the woods last week. In Gagetown....to bad I didn't get much time off to check out the local suzuki scene down there

Stick around these are great guys, a little redneckish but you'll fit in ;D

And to ansewer your question's

Look for body rot, engine problems and suspension. Everything is fixable but just some of the stuff that is normal from a 20 year old vehicle. But looking at the pics she looks awesome, even better with a lift and some mud tires ;D

The other zuk is photochop unfortunatly.

and here's a thread to help you get started

welcome, i really like the look of the tin top's but from what i've been told they are a little top heavy. I would still buy it though, nice for the colder weather and again, looks cool

There is a new Zuk that I am considering - this one seems to be in better shape, especially in the interior. Only problem is that it isnt a tintop lol. Here are the pics of the 2 of them - which one would you go for (tintop is 1000 more!)

Id say buy it, who cares if there is stuff wrong with it, that set up is very common, looks good to me.  I would keep the guys number for the other one just in case of bank error in your favor.

Looking good

I would pick the tintop before the softop.. but then again I would rather have all the goodies the softop comes with, mods you probably would have to do to the tintop anyways. And maby swap the lifted springs with some YJs, It would be an awesome rig  :)
Dont think you could go wrong with any of them ;D

Depends on were you want to start. If you want to start from scratch go with the tintop but that lifted softop is gorgous and I'd go for that. I love my tintop but in the summer, there's nothing better putting the top down and going for a cruise.

All on you brother on were you want to start.

A few guys on here have said it's a photoshop and to be honest (after taking a second look I'm not sure myself. But I think he took his zuk body and planted it on a chassis to what he want's it to be. I could put my tintop body into that pic and you wouldn't know the differance ;D

But I ave been known to be wrong before

are you positive those arnt 33's, they look a lil small compared to the wheel well...

plus i think he would have to cut off the end piece of the rear bumber to get 35's to fit


BUT man those are both really clean, if you opt for the soft top, make your to check out how well the spoa was done....ive seen some really crappy jobs before ;)


if i had another chance to find a sammy id get a stocker, that way i can say truthfully that i built it all up, plus there was alot of stuff i had to redo from the P.O. because he was careless
