This 1972 Suzuki LJ20 “Jimny” was restored seven years ago and was purchased by the current owner six years ago. This second series example features a water-cooled 360cc two-stroke twin, four speed manual transmission and two-speed transfer case. The seller states that it drives very well, draws lots of attention, and sounds like a dirt bike. This LJ20 is being offered on behalf of the current owner with a clean California title in their name.

Jimnys were not officially imported to the US by Suzuki, and about 800 were instead brought to the US by IEC. As the US did not enforce Kei length restrictions, this truck has the spare wheel mounted outside the tailgate rather than behind the seats. Overall length is just over nine feet. The seller states that the roll bar appears correct for the truck, though it is not a factory piece. The Safari top and cargo area cover are likewise not stock.

The grille sports eight vertical slats; one more than the Jeeps the Jimny was modeled after. The Suzuki name is stamped fully through the grille.

The interior is nearly stock, with padded vinyl seats, fitted rubber mats, and original instrumentation in place. The previous owner added a newer CB radio, and the seller believes that originally solid bars may have been used in the door opening rather than chains. The odometer shows 41k miles.

Power comes from a water-cooled 360cc two stroke parallel twin that was rated at around 25 horsepower when new. It is backed by a 4-speed manual transmission with a top speed of around 45 miles per hour. Per the seller, the truck has been exercised regularly and has needed little in the way of recent maintenance beyond minor adjustments and tuning.

Additional images of the underside are available in the gallery below. Per the seller the truck has only been used for shows since its restoration, and its offroading has been limited to the dirt road across the street when photographing this listing.
