hello well I am not that new, I have been out of the scene for quite a few years.I am French (hence the nickname) and live on the west of glasgow. I own a 1992 suzuki samurai/sj413 ??? since 1995. I put a blitz kit on it in 2002 so it has been modified a bit, rear brake conversion, electric fan. It has been used for off roading and normal roading until 2010 where it has been damaged off roading It is in need of extensive salvation and restauration as and has been lying in the garage since then. but i am on the case now so i will put a few pics on how it was and how it is now !!!
I dont really know where to start so if somebody has done that kind of stuff before I might need a bit of help. I was going to take the body off and start with the transmissionl, I want to put a bolt on leaf over axle kit so need help where to get one ( not a weld on) and need 2 rear springs, spring bumps...
hope to put her back in the mud soon. a bientot

Good to see someone local to me joining, although I'm about to move to Airdrie from the town. Look forward to seeing the build and hopefully see you out and about in it soon!!!
Built with ebay!!!
