Looking for the nicest Samurai that you could find?  You just found it!!  In many ways this Samurai is better now than when it was new...better, more powerful engine; better brakes; better tires; better transmission and transfer case shift lever urethane bushings; better clutch; better soft top; better stereo; better seats. This Samurai comes with the premium Rampage black soft top with tinted limo windows.  As an option, this soft top can be replaced with a new black Rally insulated one piece hard top (as shown on yellow Samurai). This Samurai has a clean, current Iowa title and is titled under Rod's Auto Sales (previously titled in Georgia).  We have run a Car Fax that shows this SUV as never being wrecked.  Rod's Auto Sales (also known as SamuraiSalvage)(Google to find our website), is offering this super nice, restored/reconditioned Samurai.  This Samurai has never seen a salty road and is 100% rust free, even under the plastic rocker panels, as shown.  It had zero rust before the restoration.  We have undercoated the entire under carriage.  Restoration included:  new original color red paint, new front and rear bumpers and new bumper end caps, new front and rear light assemblies, new windshield and gasket, new rubber door glass seals, new premium Rampage top with limo tint windows, new black spare tire cover.  We installed the largest tire possible without installing a lift kit.  New 235x75-R15 A/T tires on Suzuki chrome wheels.  One of our "featured product" 100 horse high-performance engines (only a few break-in miles).  This engine has the factory electronic fuel injection.  Originally the engine put out only 66 hp. You can actually achieve interstate speeds in this Samurai.  New heavy duty clutch kit.  Rebuilt transmission and transfer case.  New bearings and brakes in both axles.  All fluids changed.  Newer exhaust system.  Other upgrades include:  new transfer case urethane bushing, new transmission locate bolt and bushing, new motor mounts, new transmission mount, new starter relay, new 195 degree thermostat (heat gets nice and hot).  Now for the interior:  professionally reupholstered seats in two-tone leather, new black carpet set, dash is perfect with new center section and new cubby door, new ashtray, new glovebox door, new steering column surround, new black diamond plate door panels, new rubber clutch, brake and accelerator pads.  Everything on this Samurai works, without exception, and is ready to drive for years to come.  Suzuki made many upgrade changes for the 1990-1995 Samurai, which include:  electronic fuel injection, better wrap around seats that added two inches of legroom, larger outboard swaybar, larger capacity radiator, more compliant leaf springs with teflon inserts, improved dash and steering wheel, lower and more usable fifth gear ratio.  The '90-'95 Samurais are by far the most desirable years.  We also sell and install towbars, lift kits, winch bumpers, etc.  Send us your Samurai for a custom restoration project.  Check out some of our restorations at Facebook/SamuraiSalvage.  We also sell new and used OEM Suzuki Samurai, Sidekick and Tracker parts.  Google samuraisalvage to find our website.  Reasonable transport quotes are available to the potential serious buyer and the Samurai can be delivered to your front door.  Or we can pick you up at the Des Moines Airport or at the bus depot or train station.  Call Rod with questions at 641-751-2468.  This Samurai is also for sale locally at our car lot.  We reserve the right to end auction early, but once the reserve is met, it will no longer be for sale locally and the high bidder on auction will own this Samurai.

Land-speed racer Bill Warner dies from motorcycle crash at 285 MPH

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

Motorcycle land-speed record holder Bill Warner died yesterday after crashing during an attempt at setting another record. The 44-year-old was clocked at 285 miles per hour on the runway of a former air base in northern Maine, before he lost control of his modified Suzuki Hayabusa motorcycle and veered off the runway.
It is not known what speed he was traveling when things started to go wrong and unclear what caused the crash, which happened shortly before 10:00 AM. Warner's crew suspect there were mechanical difficulties on his last run, in addition to a slight breeze, according to the video news report. Warner was conscious and able to speak after the crash but died an hour and 15 minutes later at a hospital in Caribou. The event and runway were closed for the rest of the day as police investigated the incident.
Warner was participating in "The Maine Event" at Loring Air Force Base in an attempt to reach 300 mph in one mile. Warner's best land-speed record, set in 2011, was 311.945 mph in 1.5 miles on the same runway, according to the Loring Timing Association, a record that still stands today for open-cockpit motorcycles. After that run, Warner said the scariest part was stopping the bike before the end of the runway. Be sure to check out the video news report after the jump.

Remembering Suzuki of America... in commercials

Wed, 07 Nov 2012

American Suzuki Motors is leaving us, but as long as the lights are on at YouTube, its commercials will stay behind to remind of the times we shared. We dug up nine commercials - sort of like a Time Life infomercial for an entire brand - and among the starring actors are the X-90 improving the 90s with the help of a Pez dispenser, the Peter Pan-ish Sidekick, Optimus Prime getting his pipes all smoked up over the 1987 Samurai and an XL7 that would have sold in the millions if its commercial were even half true.
We've also included a remarkably oddball eight-minute featurette/commercial about a giant Suzuki Swift. You'll find the retrospective in the videos below. Enjoy.
