I Bought A JDM Imported Truck!

[@cpuuk]

Good call.

[@SamVBikes]

🙌🏼👌🏼

[@johnno194]

Brilliant. My dad had one of these in the eighties. I bought an RM250 motocross bike and I used to load the bike on the back to get to places to ride the bike. The Suzuki pickup was ace to drive

[@SamVBikes]

That sounds ideal! Exactly what I want to use this for too!

[@vadimhult4206]

Congrats! Can’t wait to see the new build 🎉

[@SamVBikes]

Thank you!

[@CrustyBiker]

Please cover the seats and get the bottom thoroughly coated in clear waxoyl or lanoguard as British winters are gonna take hold and turn it to sh1t, I have a rare Suzuki X-90 that's been off the road about 5 years and rusting away because it needs work attention money and tlc thrown at it, I wish id protected the 80s seats waxoyl'd and more back then...

[@SamVBikes]

I've got some Lanoguard seal downstairs, raptor coat for the bed and some seat covers on the way! I've seen what the salted roads can do to my bikes so I'm not risking it with this beaut! I've got some XCP rust blocker too for the bikes which I'll probably coat the engine and metal components in too! Like you say, can't be too careful

[@michaelmclarney1994]

Hi Sam, great purchase! When my brother was doing his house, he went back to brick and ripped out the ceilings so lots of tip trips. He bought a LWB Ex military series 3 Land Rover for the purpose. It costs much less than multiple skips!

[@SamVBikes]

Thank you mate! It's a great idea isn't it! A few trips to the recycling plant are so easy. The looks you get loaded up too is hilarious

[@michaelmclarney1994]

@@SamVBikes brilliant idea mate! I was wondering if the Adventure would fit diagonally? You're right, this would make a great base for a camper, especially if it was long enough to sleep in the flat bed. The possibilities are endless!

[@SamVBikes]

In theory the SAS should fit straight in.. it's a 6.5ft bed and the bike is apparently just over 5ft long. I'll have to try it and let you know haha! There are so many possibilities for it and I can't wait!

[@michaelmclarney1994]

@@SamVBikes I look forward to seeing what you do with it and what you get up to. Have a great week mate 👍

[@SamVBikes]

Thank you mate! Hope you have a good one too! Hope you're recovering well too

[@davey235]

These were everywhere in the UK in the 90’s basically a Bedford Rascal but Kei-alised

[@SamVBikes]

I wouldn't mind the 1.3L engine in the Rascal for the extra power haha

[@zexypupil]

Congratulations on bagging a mint example! Absolute unit of a vehicle, hereby dubbed The Monkeh Express. Or maybe the Bonobo Bus? 🤔 Begin customisations immediately please, we need more videos. Also, is it RWD when not running 4WD or can you only donut in reverse?

[@SamVBikes]

Thank you very much! Haha customisation is well under way! Already looking at lift kits and chunky wheels! It's RWD when it's running on 2... which means skids! (In the snow because it doesn't have enough power to spin the wheels)

[@davidashpole7343]

Great into mate, cool truck, looking forward to seeing its journey and what mischief you can get upto in it.

[@SamVBikes]

Thank you mate! Yeah looking forward to drifting it in the snow 😂

[@TheSpectre223]

Great little thing, love it. I've wanted for years to get a Suzuki Carry / Bedford Rascal etc van and make a teeny, tiny camper out of it. Look forward to seeing more of this one whichever channel it winds up being.

[@SamVBikes]

Definitely a brilliant little thing! If you've got the cash to get one, do it soon because they seem to be going up in value quick!

[@Thegeordiemonkey]

Jelous af, been wanting one for my monkeys for years, same ideas for modding too. Cannot wait to see what ya do.

[@SamVBikes]

Just makes sense alongside the monkey doesn't it?! Just need to find some money to do the work to it 😂

[@Thegeordiemonkey]

@@SamVBikes i would go on the game but would need to charge by the minute, would be 87 by time i covered the cost of the furry dice.

[@SamVBikes]

😂😂 You've just made me think of buying some furry dice for it! Not had those since I was 17

[@Wats1984]

That’s mint! Looking forward to seeing more of that! 🤣👍

[@SamVBikes]

Haha thank you mate!

[@mattmutane5502]

Awesome!! :D Reminds me of the late 80s Suzuki Alto (you might need to google that! ;) - also a tripple, might be the same engine), that my wife's first car was, that I used to love terrorising people with.. ;) :D The torque for the size of the engine was fantastic, and the low weight of the car meant it was a traffic light grand prix winner on most occasions... ;) :D 796cc/41bhp of rip roaring JDM goodness... ;) :D :D Top choice Sam, I WANT one now... ;) :) :D ( ( think it could JUST about nudge 80mph on a good day ;) )

[@SamVBikes]

Haha I know what an Alto is!! Hopefully that means you don't feel as old bringing it up! I adore little kei cars. Although I think hitting 80mph would only happen if I dropped it from a helicopter 😂

[@mattmutane5502]

@@SamVBikes LOL - Good to know you know your Kei cars... ;) :D (many are sniffy about, and turn their nose up at them!!). I'd LOVE a Honda S660.... (you really MIGHT have to google that!! ;) :p :D :D ).

[@SamVBikes]

Those who turn their nose up are only compensating for something else! I cannot wait to get this thing modded... the amount of looks it gets is hilarious! (I know what a Honda S660 is too)

Haha! Now that's a challenge!

[@rebeccachristie1969]

That is sooo cool. When I was a wee child labour kid I did a local milk round in one of those. My seat was an upturned milk crate in the back corner. Jump on and off at each house, it was rural , shitty lane place and it coped amazingly 🤩

[@SamVBikes]

[@matttownsend1652]

@SamVBikes In for a penny and all that.💪🤣 spending lots on accessories, I managed to bag the last set of Outback motortek crash bars. Looking to see what boxes to get. Do you have any recommendations?

[@SamVBikes]

Happy days mate! I've heard they work really well if you're stupid enough to hit gravel 😂 I've got the Givi Trekker Dolomiti, and I know a few have similar Givi metal boxes. Look a bit smarter than the plastic ones!

[@DISCOSHOEBOX]

I love it, I look forward to more of this. I gave you a sub because I love kei trucks and I have one on my wish list in the near future.
