I picked this up back in February with hopes and dreams to do something with it. Unfortunately, I won't be getting around to that in a reasonable amount of time so I'm going to pass it along. It's not much to look at as it's been rattle canned black and the doors and hood were replaced from a red body at some point. It has stock running gear, but has had a 1.6 8v motor swap using an adapter to the stock Samurai 5 speed. There is a brand new Weber carburetor on the motor. It has lift shackles and "decent tires".
Clean title in hand.
The best thing about it is this...very little rust. The driver floor had some in the past, but it has been patched. The only rust spots I've noticed are two small spots on the windshield frame I'd planned to cut out and replace.
The bad thing is that while the previous owner was installing the new carburetor he dropped a screw or screws in the intake which damaged the head and the pistons. It does come with a 1.3 motor that's in pieces. There is a block with clutch attached and 2 complete heads. All of these parts would need to be cleaned and checked, but were said to "run" before the engine was disassembled.
The previous owner also recently replaced all lubricants in axles, transmission, and tcase with Lucas products. I believe he had the front end apart to reseal it at the time.
Sorry I don't have better pictures, but if you're interested I'll get more. Right now the Samurai is parked inside my shop with my buggy and F100 enjoying the A/C and staying dry. :****:
