Up For auction is my 1988 Samurai Hardtop. This is a rare item as it is almost 100% rust free! Excellent looking and excellent running/mechanical condition. I drove 5 hrs to pick up this samurai from western PA then drove it home. It was owned by two mechanics prior to me. They did a lot of work to it, which I will try to describe.
here is the list of things I think are worth mentioning,
Has a Weber Carb,,Thorley Headers, new high preformace clutch, pressure plate and throw out bearing, upgraded blue halogen headlights, aftermarket brush guard with front end tow hitch, new rear shocks, new serpentine belt, has recent new brakes, recent tune up, does not leak oil or any other fluids, runs great throughout all rpms, aftermarket front seats. Truck was painted from its original teal green to black. the undercarriage has been done with some type of protective spray. It has a 4 inch spoa lift with the appropriate axle spacers. 15 inch Mickey Thompson Classic wheels, 31x70x15 Mickey Thompson Super Swampers with about 80% tread life, the tires and rims alone are worth about $1000 used. The front and rear windows have been replaced and there is new rubber surrounds for each.
There is a spot of surface rust that you can see starting to bubble under the paint just below the windshield on the passengers side. it is about two inches long and a inch wide. ,I have not been able to engage the four wheel drive,,it may be something I am doing wrong, I never had it looked at. Other than that ,this is a daily driver. It starts right up and has never let me down. I do love this Samurai. I hate to sell it but I need the money....It turns heads wherever it goes! This is a no reserve auction and it will go to the highest bidder. Please be ready to pay in cash or certified check within three days of auctions end, or don't bid. If you want to pay me with a certified check,,thats fine,,but be aware,,the title will not switch hands until that check is cashed. I have heard of certified check scams on ebay and refuse to be that victim.
Can be seen and test driven in Ocean City NJ,,feel free to call me with any questions or comments,,609-780-0050, but there will be no but it now price. Bid with confidence,,though this is an awesome little truck,,,Happy Bidding,, Jeff

Suzuki back in MotoGP for 2015
Tue, 18 Jun 2013It had been planned for 2014 but it's going to be 2015 instead - that's when Suzuki returns to the manufacturer ranks of MotoGP after quitting the series at the end of 2011 because of The Great Recession. When Suzuki stopped after 37 continuous years of racing, it said it intended to return three years later and it has been in talks with MotoGP's rights holder, Dorna Sports, since last year. No doubt, though, that fan anticipation of the team's return outdoes any dismay at the delay. It will join Yamaha, Honda and Ducati in the premiere league.
Its bike has already been testing in Japan and was with the official MotoGP tribe in Barcelona, Spain on Monday when Suzuki announced its return. It's said the development bike is called the XRH-1, being ridden by official tester Randy de Puniet (who currently races in MotoGP on an Aprilia-based bike with TeamAspar). and after a day of testing de Puniet got the new Suzuki to within seven-tenths of a second of the top time posted by other MotoGP teams. Davide Brivio, who once ran the Fiat-Yamaha team and has been close with Valentino Rossi, will be the team manager.
Speaking of Rossi, The Doctor is back with Fiat-Yamaha after a bad run with Ducati but is only contracted to the end of 2014. Brivio is the man who got Rossi to join Fiat-Yamaha, then got him to Ducati. Until he took the head of Suzuki's works effort, Brivio was working with Rossi's VR46 management company, heading areas like merchandising. The rumormill has already begun its work, with folks wondering if Rossi will head to Suzuki in 2015 if his second stint at Yamaha doesn't prove fruitful before then. Scroll down below for the official press release from Suzuki.
Suzuki offers sneak peek at Authentics concept for Shanghai
Sun, 31 Mar 2013Suzuki has prepared the C-segment Authentics concept for the Shanghai Motor Show, a preview of a sedan that would slot into the fattest chunk of the market among China's car buyers. Suzuki hasn't given away much, saying only that it is "Sporty x Elegant" and that it's long and low and has a "rich and fine curved surface."
PaulTan.org says this is the trunked version of the SX4 crossover, and if that's the case then it would represent a new approach to the SX4 in the region, offering markedly different styling instead of being, literally, an SX4 with a trunk. We'll know more when the Shanghai show opens in a couple of weeks, for now there's a press release with a tad more info on Suzuki's plans just below.
Suzuki Jimny displays Samurai spirit in Japanese snowstorm
Thu, 20 Feb 2014Say what you will about its smallest SUVs, but you have to hand it to Suzuki: the likes of the Samurai, Sidekick and Vitara were doing the little-sport-ute-that-could thing long before most of the rest of the industry caught on. And the formula remains relevant enough that Suzuki is still selling the same basic Samurai overseas as the Jimny.
That could be why the Samurai still has something of a cult following. Well, that and the name - which, as it turns out, may not have been such a stretch after all. A Samurai warrior, after all, was just one man - but like any other knight, he was worth more than his headcount on the battlefield. Or in this case, a Japanese snowstorm. Just watch the half-minute video below to see what we mean.
