My Vehicle:
Suzuki SJ413 JX, I rescued it from a barn in February 2019, just before the COVID-19 lockdown. At 36 years old, it hadn’t been on the road since 2006, with no keys or documents. It took a screwdriver and a can of easystart to get it running, a little bit of welding on the footwell, and a new clutch! Originally intended as a 2-3 year sympathetic restoration, the lockdown resulted in my furlough from work, allowing me to dedicate a lot of time to the vehicle. Three months later, it was road legal, and that’s when the modifications began!
