I loved my Suzuki Samuri- and if I could get another one? I would-HOWEVER- and this is a big HOWEVER- they're HORRIBLY underpowered with a 59 HP engine for a vehicle that weighs 2950 pounds dry curb weight.



They can supposedly roll over- I only came close to doing this ONCE and that was my fault for overdriving the road, not the vehicles design.



So- take a Chev V6, thats about 130HP, and do an engine swap. Put in a super heavy duty clutch. You may have to swap the transmission also.



Go to a red light, flip off a cop, pop the clutch and do a wheel stand. Make sure you have enough money to post bail and get your truck out of the towing companys yard!

Lots of fun %26amp; economical. To short of wheel base for the height of vehical (way tippy-put one on it's side). Between the short wheel base, the stiff springs and the thin seat it will beat you to death! from another ex-owner
