Wanted,sj /samuri

Hi all,
I might be looking for the holy grail but if you don’t ask😆
im after an sj ,preferably hard top, to restore,
a barn find if you like.
Something that’s not been molested or turned into a monster truck.
im happy with mechanical stuff ,but don’t really want a pile of rust.
TIA
mike

Hi, 

We don't tend to see many SJs for sale on here. I'm not sure what country you're in but for the UK I would recommend the following below.
The Suzuki SJ413, 410 samurai owners discussion group on Facebook is quite active with lots of sellers & resellers. Cars varying from wrecks to mint ones. 
EBay is most likely where you'll find the barn find cars with someone selling who doesn't know too much about them or it's been passed onto them. 
Facebook marketplace but it's hit & miss. Most likely dodgy modified or badly rebuilt ones. 
Auctions such as Mathewsons in Yorkshire is where the best condition ones tend to sell for top money. 

I'm not sure what type of project your looking for and how much you know about SJs but you do have to be very careful as most Barn finds & just SJs in general tend to be destined for the scrapyard with nothing much left but a chassis. New panels, Sills, extensive welding can quickly add up if you can't do it yourself. You really have to look everywhere and know what you're walking into otherwise what might look a quick fix and be a full rebuild which most tend to need if you want it looking factory. Here's the full rebuild video of mine and it tells you what we found when buying one and what to look for.
