Now that is the sort of pimp my ride i enjoyed watching. My Son is thinking of buying a Jimny or similar as his first car and i have shared the video to show him what is possible.
Ahh I love this! You guys are great on camera and it looks like you did an incredible job. Seriously, would pay an arm and a leg for you to do even a quarter of this to my Sierra!
Great job guys, only one problem. It wasn't Mine! 😆. I have one of these from 1998, although mine is a Samurai and is in much better condition. I love mine to bits and I can't see any future plans in changing it. Elvis, you are one luck guy, to have mates who would do such a great job on a fantasic wee truck for you.
Beautiful project and restoration , old machines are pure gold that should get looked after and enjoyed not left to rust, the sand paint is nice but not my first choice the red was alright I'd probably have chosen a dark blue or purple just my opinion , great job though guys
These are the best stories, and a job that most people could do, it's ok doing the 4bies, that are a 100k+ but this is the real deal, affordable, a good cause and a great outcome, well done those men.....
she'll last another twenty years... for sure... nice job guys...my 2015 zook only has 25k so she'll last me another twenty.. thanks for the vid.. was awesome
I bought my SJ80 the coily version in Cyprus and owner had it from new. Few rust places and you could grow mushroom under the plastic carpet. I don't have the time this year to take of the body so I did whatever I could like it is, cut and replaced rust parts. I would like to have a lift kit from ULTIMA but unfortunately they don't ship to Cyprus 😕😔😔😔. Parts are rare for the coily version apparently. The same as my other suzuki grand vitara
Hey guys how much raptor did you use for that little thing. I am doing a respray on mine in the next couple of weeks and I was wondering how much raptor did you use?
we used 3x 4L kits, we thought the 1 box would do it but when we took the car apart and sprayed multiple coats on the inside and out, we quickly went through it.
@@SparesboxAuto Sweet! Had a Weber in my 1:3L with the coolant actuated choke…then found a good deal on a 1.6L 8 valve from a Suzuki Escudo/Sidekick, Geo Tracker which was amazing, then got an SPOA kit from rocky-road outfitters, 31s super swampers with CJ wheels, and a 4:1 transfer case gears….it was a pretty cool setup, I wish I had kept it… :(
Great stuff guys! Love a cheeky little rebuild like this bringing something back to life 👍
Us too! 2 weeks of laughing, crying, tetanus and destroyed clothes!
@@SparesboxAuto haha yeah got keep those shots current 😃😂
That NWA thing was so good. Didn't realise what you were doing for a sec then burst out laughing. Love it bois
Haha we HAD to include it!
Looking mint, glad to see another zook getting looked after.
It got the love it deserved that's for sure!
@@SparesboxAuto In the process of rebuilding my Zook, your build went a lot quicker
many hands make light work... but still, this was a lot of work
locker, lift and 31's... i wanna see that go on a trip with the 4wd action boys
Would be a fun little rig that's for sure!
Make it possible sam
They can tilt forwards due to the weight of the front
Weight ratio between the rear and front can make it dangerous!
Well done guys , "Elvis has left the building" with a massive smile!
Nothing could wipe the smile off his face! Stoked is an understatement!
Now that is the sort of pimp my ride i enjoyed watching. My Son is thinking of buying a Jimny or similar as his first car and i have shared the video to show him what is possible.
Affordable, simple and cool! Definitely recommend them as a first car
Ahh I love this! You guys are great on camera and it looks like you did an incredible job. Seriously, would pay an arm and a leg for you to do even a quarter of this to my Sierra!
Appreciate the feedback!
Absolutely magic, I always regretted selling my SJ413 over 20years ago I'd have another anytime.
Thanks for sharing and keep em coming
get another one! perfect for summer!
SJ413 are the best little offroader,build tough , i have the same SJ50 love its ride💓🇯🇵
You Guys are having WAY TOO much fun. Great Job.
Onya guys feel good build making a lifetime memory for someone is the best gift . welldone .
It's an amazing feeling
how much would a rebuild like this typically cost? i have a 2012 jimny atm but im looking to grab an older sierra and do her up :))) thanks !
I have a 2011 Jimny... Love it!, and also my dream is to build a second gen!; in my country we refer to the Sierra as Samurai.
You did what most can't be arsed to do! but it's so worth restoring these vehicles
imagine what we can do with 2 months!
Great job guys, only one problem.
It wasn't Mine! 😆.

Beautiful surprise, good on everyone involved you've all done a great job for this young man.
The young man certainly appreciated it!
@@SparesboxAuto
I could see that.
He may not have cried for the camera, but he certainly looked overwhelmed.
It was a gorgeous video. 🍻

Great result guys, and nicely put together video.
Appreciate the feedback!

I heard Jamie O'Brien's intro song . Going to the beach . Tripping for a sec. Love this build. I have a 98 coily
"It looks like a mini land cruiser" spott on because that is exactly what it is 🤣
she'll last another twenty years... for sure... nice job guys...my 2015 zook only has 25k so she'll last me another twenty.. thanks for the vid.. was awesome
love that blue merc in the back at 4:30
We do too!
Impressive...i wish i can get those parts in Kenya. I would re-build my 1994 Sierra to anew.
Excelente trabajo !!!!!!
Les quedó precioso el Suzuki 👍👌
Great video guys! I really enjoyed that. looks like you have have a great team there :)
did i see this parked in centennial park the other day? happy to see the build process behind it
Not this one! It's still not quite ready for rego!
that's not even that bad, i had to make all new tubs on my Suzuki Samurai. all the footwells where gone aswell. love what you done with this one
Get the welder out, it's all fixable!
Ah mate that looks beautiful, well done. Can't wait to see the next plans for it.
How much raptor did you end up using to do the full spray?
We used 3 of the '4 bottle' kits to do the interior, exterior and all panels!
Ah awsome, such a clean job, I'm looking at doing it to my car but just the exterior, so thanks for the info.👌🏼
Nice way to keep the boys working during a lockdown
Can't go wheelin', builds another car to go wheelin'
Love the drz with the Yoshimura in the back of the shop👍🏻
Cool little build coming up on the AMX Superstores YT channel!
Fantastic job! But why didn’t you paint the H-frame? As a Jimny-owner I would love to you upgrade the car even more.

I can imagine it would be hard to find parts!
@@SparesboxAuto why don't Australia ship to Cyprus??? I wanted some tickets from Zookhub also and they couldn't mail them to me either???
That is not the worst sierra, should see the one on my farm right now
I have the same SJ413,SJ50 they are build tough ,love its ride🇯🇵💓
Was watching the video and I didn’t realise Levi worked there. Say gday to the champion. Great guy.
Levi says G'Day back to you mate!
nice job!! where i can get those headligths?
Awesome build guys
"worst suzuki sierras"... Looks to be the average second hand sierra tbh haha.
While your on the topic.. wouldnt mind some LJ81 steel panels to land in your online store.🤞🏻
Looks mint! And the reveal 1😃
We just wish he had teared up haha!
Hey guys how much raptor did you use for that little thing. I am doing a respray on mine in the next couple of weeks and I was wondering how much raptor did you use?
I was gonna ask the same thing
we used 3x 4L kits, we thought the 1 box would do it but when we took the car apart and sprayed multiple coats on the inside and out, we quickly went through it.
What is the wheel and tyre size of this jeep in this video.
Loved my sj70 hard top so much haven't had the heart to sell it yet even though I have a 2020 Suzuki jimmy.
did you see our white one towards the end of the video... is that the next build?
@@SparesboxAuto hope so that would be mint
White jimny sierra jb74 cameo at the end.
yep, they're everywhere haha
love what you guys are doing...warm greetings from Indonesia
selamat datang saudaraku
@@SparesboxAuto terima kasih....
Gotta love those suzies…miss my Samurai JX
Got a Weber going on it next, a little bit of power to match the looks
@@SparesboxAuto Sweet!

I subbed before I even made it halfway through this video can't wait to see more!
Epic! Welcome to the Sparesbox army!
Good Vibes man!
so vibey
Just missing a lift and some big knobbly 30's !! Looking beaut boys
me watching this with one in worse condition in my garage xD
How come you didn't you strip the chassis and prime and raptor it while you had it all to bits?.. and when does it get a 1hdt or a duramax transplant?
thinking 13b, k20 or 4agze....
@@SparesboxAuto noice
where did you guys get the carpet kit from? nigh impossible to get one over here in the UK
We made our own using marine carpet from our local hardware shop!
How can you replaced countoured plate with flat plate? 🙄
Is the Sierra the same as a samurai?
Yeah mate, Sierra, Jimny, Maruti, Gypsy, Samurai.... what a collective
Love the paint. Can you kindly let me know exactly what is this type of paint called.
Raptor coat
www.sparesbox.com.au/part/raptor-coating-black-kit-4l-rlb-s4
That's called GYPSY KING here in India. It can be found in every corner around here
Elvis is the Gypsy King so it's only fitting he has one
Why not sandblast it?
wheel spacers, aren't they illegal? why not just get some wheels with more offset?
How much raptor did they use ?
Heaps! 3 x 4L kits!
This vehicle is known as Gypsy here in India. I must say great rebuild and a sensible one too.. All the very best..
Elvis is the Gypsy here at Sparesbox
Awesome little beast!
can't wait to upgrade it further!
Fucking epic boys! Huge surprise for your boy and I’m taking this as inspiration for my 96 Vitara. Awesome content guys I’m a new subscriber 🇦🇺
What did you do the chassis did it get painted ?
it was pretty good so we decided to leave it alone.
“In true Sam spirit I’m not going to get my hands dirty” hahahahhaha legend
Haha bloody Sam likes to avoid as much hard work as possible!
@@SparesboxAuto yeah mate I bet he is last to grab the maxtrax out on the tracks
That fade to NWA was epic!!! hahahaa
Haha gotta throw in some NWA love!
Was that Export paint that was used on the flairs?
Sure was! Rattle can special!
Now you’ll have to do Cape York in it 😜
Haha! Leaf springs and corrugations, Sam says no!
I liked this better that the new 4wd action vid
LOVE the feedback! We're hustling! :D
Nice work
Something for next time. Get the non woven paint stripping wheels.
They rip paint off quicker than anything and don't damage the steel underneath.
top tip, thanks!
Here in the northeast of the US we call that amount of rust “mint” body and frame!!
Fortunately for the team Australia doesn't salt their roads. although, if they did, we wouldn't be working on this project
Building old suv for your mate is ultimate thing.. 🍺
Cheers to you, it was bloody good fun
Awww. Looks awwsumly fantastic. Gold. Nahh it's epicly gold maan ye ye ha ha
Can you convert sj410 grill to sj413
You guys should get more views!
Agreed! But with your support we can get there!
This car is incomparable better than mine, which I took from junkyard. 75% was eaten by red wh..re. Yours is like brand new.
Subbbbbbbed!! Thank you for these beautiful restoration videos!
Thanks for the sub! Enjoy the future content!
Very disappointed that you didn't spray the chassis before putting it back in
Fair, but it didn't need it and we only did this in 5 days all for free and all to help a mate. we could've done less.
wow loved
Love the color
That Sierra before the work was 10 times better than my $500 Sierra
Haha! We don't doubt it!
Loving it ❤ ❤
Loving your support too!
Should use penetrol rust converter on that chassis
No sand blast?
it's whole life it was blasted with sand dirt and grime
Damn wish you boys gave the chassis a little tidy up/paint
There's still time! :D
Is sparesbox available worldwide?
Depends on the products!
rust converta in tha litta …. every mans best friend !!! 😆
Bless the inventor of this amazing liquid!
Lol your worst is one of our best up here in Canada..... im jealous.
We have way worse than the one shown here, its better than many that are currently for sale. Title is a bit misleading.
a good job!
Bring on the new Jimny build
Lets goooo!
Best episode of Pimp my ride, ever.
*Xzibit has entered the chat*
Few scratches on the new paint near the front of the bonnet🤣🤣🤣🤣
Why not treat and paint the chassis if you already take it that far apart, great little car
Epic!
good job!
awwwww looks amazing! Now i gotta do mine!
p.s how'd you get the original deadener material out?
Lots of grinding discs and wire wheels!
how much did the restoration cost in total?
around 3k including tyres, shocks, brakes, paint, windscreen and windscreen surround then all the service items

Hey legend! Loving the overseas love!
@@SparesboxAuto looks cool love the old zuks
If my location senses are accurate. Elvis can pick up your lifetime supply of beer from Willie the Boatman brewery!
Damn your location senses are on point! Marrickville Lager please!
@@SparesboxAuto how good! Great video too, I love a Sierra. I spent quite a few weekends in the Otways back in the day in one of those bad boys.
Great to see a Sammy get a new life!
Reborn and ready for another 30 years
If you went to all that trouble , why did'nt you paint the chaisis?
We needed to leave Elvis some things to do himself!
