We Fix Australia's Worst Suzuki Sierra & Surprise Our Co-Worker With it!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 жов 2021
- After purchasing one of Australia's worst Suzuki Sierra and then being forced into a hard-core Sydney lockdown, our co-worker Elvis was forced to put the Sierra build on the back-burner. Lucky for him, the rest of us decided to surprise him with a FULL MAKE-OVER!
We fixed rust, gave it a major mechanical overhaul, resprayed the entire vehicle and even added in some trick 4x4 mods to help him get off-road. What an epic experience! We truly took one of Australia's worst cars and turned it into an AWESOME Suzuki Sierra, Maruti, Jimny or Suzuki Samurai as they're known around the world.
Thanks to KYB, NGK, Bendix, Narva, Upol Australia and whoever invented rust converter!!
See part 2 of the build where elvis adds a lift kit and stereo then heads out bush for a scenic drive and camp. - • Suzuki Sierra Gets 2 I...

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!
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
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
"It looks like a mini land cruiser" spott on because that is exactly what it is 🤣
Well done guys , "Elvis has left the building" with a massive smile!
Nothing could wipe the smile off his face! Stoked is an understatement!
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!
You Guys are having WAY TOO much fun. Great Job.
Excelente trabajo !!!!!!
Les quedó precioso el Suzuki 👍👌
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
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💓🇯🇵
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. 🍻
Onya guys feel good build making a lifetime memory for someone is the best gift . welldone .
It's an amazing feeling
Great video guys! I really enjoyed that. looks like you have have a great team there :)
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
Great result guys, and nicely put together video.
Appreciate the feedback!
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!
I heard Jamie O'Brien's intro song . Going to the beach . Tripping for a sec. Love this build. I have a 98 coily
Awesome build guys
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.
“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'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!
Love the drz with the Yoshimura in the back of the shop👍🏻
Cool little build coming up on the AMX Superstores YT channel!
Looks mint! And the reveal 1😃
We just wish he had teared up haha!
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
Nice work
Awesome little beast!
can't wait to upgrade it further!
Impressive...i wish i can get those parts in Kenya. I would re-build my 1994 Sierra to anew.
love what you guys are doing...warm greetings from Indonesia
selamat datang saudaraku
@@SparesboxAuto terima kasih....
Good Vibes man!
so vibey
I have the same SJ413,SJ50 they are build tough ,love its ride🇯🇵💓
love that blue merc in the back at 4:30
We do too!
Nice way to keep the boys working during a lockdown
Can't go wheelin', builds another car to go wheelin'
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!
I subbed before I even made it halfway through this video can't wait to see more!
Epic! Welcome to the Sparesbox army!
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.👌🏼
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.....
good job!
wow loved
Just missing a lift and some big knobbly 30's !! Looking beaut boys
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! 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… :(
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 🇦🇺
Subbbbbbbed!! Thank you for these beautiful restoration videos!
Thanks for the sub! Enjoy the future content!
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!
Now you’ll have to do Cape York in it 😜
Haha! Leaf springs and corrugations, Sam says no!
Awww. Looks awwsumly fantastic. Gold. Nahh it's epicly gold maan ye ye ha ha
a good job!
Nice !!!
nice job!! where i can get those headligths?
That fade to NWA was epic!!! hahahaa
Haha gotta throw in some NWA love!
Love the color
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
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
Epic!
I liked this better that the new 4wd action vid
LOVE the feedback! We're hustling! :D
That’s awesome
Lol your worst is one of our best up here in Canada..... im jealous.
Loving it ❤ ❤
Loving your support too!
excellent
"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.🤞🏻
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.
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
rust converta in tha litta …. every mans best friend !!! 😆
Bless the inventor of this amazing liquid!
Few scratches on the new paint near the front of the bonnet🤣🤣🤣🤣
Subscribed 👌🏻🏎️💨
Building old suv for your mate is ultimate thing.. 🍺
Cheers to you, it was bloody good fun
What a great little weapon
Skrrt Skrrt, keen to get out and test it on the trails
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!
You guys should get more views!
Agreed! But with your support we can get there!
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
White jimny sierra jb74 cameo at the end.
yep, they're everywhere haha
Honestly, a Sierra is my damn dream rig! I'd love to own a cool little truck 😂
Dream little
Exactly right haha.
Aww saaam. Wot a minty car,
Ye Te looks SOO coool 2, farrroutski
Areet full send !!! Sam hello from Newcastle UK
Hey legend! Loving the overseas love!
@@SparesboxAuto looks cool love the old zuks
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
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???
Best episode of Pimp my ride, ever.
*Xzibit has entered the chat*
Great video mate. But compared to my old sierra that things a show pony haha
Haha, sorry for your loss
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!
Haven't seen many Sierra's around Australia lol
Great to see a Sammy get a new life!
Reborn and ready for another 30 years
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.
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.
Mantap luar biasa tetap jaya
Should use penetrol rust converter on that chassis
Was that Export paint that was used on the flairs?
Sure was! Rattle can special!
"Priceless Reaction" 😊✌️🇵🇭❤️
Agreed! Feels good!
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!
@Berlina Bodyworks you got competition lol
HAHAHA! Doubt it!
If ever there was a video that earned a sub lol
Ooft soooo sick
working in a small workshop like this is a dream of mine, I've been working for a brand for 3 years now and I just don't know anymore
Stay on the grind mate! You'll achieve your goals eventually
In India its called the Gypsy 😁 motion sickness machine for people in the back 🤣 Great workhorse though, none like it.
That Sierra before the work was 10 times better than my $500 Sierra
Haha! We don't doubt it!
What did you do the chassis did it get painted ?
it was pretty good so we decided to leave it alone.
Hey, sparesbox has a channel? Sweet
Make sure you subscribe!
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.
nice car xD its kinda funny but here in norway those cars are named suzuki sj410/ 413 pickup or a samurai :) and whery hard too get :P
Imagine how the Samurai feel having a wee little adventure vehicle named after them.
its still in better knick than ED's golden nugget
Bring on the new Jimny build
Lets goooo!
What is the wheel and tyre size of this jeep in this video.
