The most manly vehicle I’ve ever seen at 1/8th scale.

Is it wrong to want this little Japanese jeep ( Suzuki Jimny )? It shouldn’t be wrong. It looks so right. Maybe not so right is a two stroke engine. Last time I had a two stroke I nearly crashed many times. Mind you, that was a motorcycle...

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

This 1972 Suzuki LJ10 is not only two stroke (which is very unusual) but it produces a MASSIVE amount of 25 HP! I imagine you need to really wind this thing up in order to go anywhere. Then again it has a curb weight of 1300 pounds and a top speed of 47 mph.

You need to be careful with this amount of power.

Just look at it! Giggity!

I want this thing so bad. I don’t even feel that the $12,900 is a bad price. It appears original and unfortunately has CA license plates displayed for ‘display purposes’. I always love vehicles that have their original plates. Adds just that much more cool factor. If the mileage is true (based on documents I hope) it should sell quickly, I’d think.

Kinja'd!!!

Any takers to give me the money for this one? All my money is tied up in my Camaro at the moment...

That would be the perfect camp vehicle. You could tow a trailer and this would fit in the back of the truck. Then once camp is set up you have this little thing to bomb around in.

Kinda like a Mahindra Roxor but this Suzuki is street legal. Camp and drive into town with it.

Maybe if the Roxor does well, we will get the Suzuki Farmworker / Maruti Gypsy in the U.S.
