I’ve had mine for about 15 years now. It’s a 1982 GSL with all the original factory options. Mines pretty heavily modified though. It made a huge 89rwhp on the dyno out of the carb’d 12a.
Just about everyone I know has trouble fitting in all the fun cars. I’m relatively small, so I fit great in my rx7 and Miata.
Honestly I'm kind of glad I got my Samurai, because I have a neighbor with a 1983 or 1984 Rx7 that looks great but never moves, and I was having to talk myself out of offering him money for it.
It's getting very difficult to find parts for the FB. There are a lot less people who know how to work on them, or are willing to work on them too. They are a blast to drive, and every time I think I should sell mine, I go for a drive, and remember why I can't.
A few pics of mine....
Very nice! I had that same spoiler on my '79.
Let me see if I can figure out how to post a picture. It's not a sexy as an Rx-7 but it's just as fun, in a different way.! image
The samurai is an amazing little vehicle. They are pretty adorable too.
