Jimny Found and Stripped was created by Fieldsports
Well I know these Jimny bits can be hard to find so after phoning all over I found a COMPLETE one in a Breakers yard.
It was on a V plate with a genuine 21 thou on it.
I could not but the full car as the elderly owner had passed away and his wife drove it in on the stipulation it would never leave the yard.
She thought it would be upsetting for her to see her husbands Jimny back on the road.
Well I hit lucky I have stripped the lot so I am over the moon to be able to say I have spares.
This has a few more bits missing than showing in the photo's as I have been back today to finish it off.
I hit on extra lucky as it is even the same colour as mine ;)
The interior is my old one that was not that good, I swapped it for the good one ages ago.
If anyone wants to know the yard that it is in let me know and I will tell you if the bit you need is on it still.
I have engine, box, transfer box, all props, diffs, halfshafts, plastics bonnet and all the other straight panels that was on it, door motors ( windows and locks ), lock set with keys, air bags, ECU and all moduals. Radiator and heater matrix, mirrors,lights, power steering unit, etc..etc..
Found in Hexham Northumberland. The Yard owner is great to deal with and is not silly with prices at all.

I know mate, it was on the road as well.
I was gutted to have to break it but that was the deal.

Believe it or not this stood for about a year untouched before I found it.
I thought the Suzuki lads would of beat me to it like they normally do.

I am pleased to have the opportunity to own the parts but what a shame for the little car.

I would rather keep them mate incase I break one at some time.
I know they are not readily available so its best not to part with them.
Thanks Steve
