Title: Sweet Sidekick in Alabama
Post by: Davyboy on April 21, 2009, 06:45:50 PM

Hey all....although the asking price is a little higher than what most would want to pay, I couldn't help but notice this pristine looking 1989 Suzuki Sidekick on Autotrader.  If the time and price was right, I'd be tempted to get it myself.  I'm not sure there are many left this clean.  Not sure of the miles on it, but it looks like it was a toad, and taken very good care of.  Hell, it's in way better condition than my 99 GV.  Anyway, maybe it'll make someone a nice truck.

The car ID is AT-F849827

It really looks incredible....like it's been sitting in a time machine for 20 years!

Looks alright.......but it looks more like its been repainted...if i Am wrong.....then that person or persons that owned it took very very very good care of it....not to scratch...bump...scuff it...

MIleage=Unlisted....this means there is alot of miles on it...when will dealers learn

what no underbody pictures to show us the truth :( lol

but great vehicle overall....way to much for asking price

Well....hard to know for sure, but sometimes vehicles that are towed behind motor homes are owned by older couples and are taken very good care of.  The unlisted mileage might be because of the towing miles, which are of course a lot different than driven miles.  The interior looks way better than any other Zuk I've seen of that age.  The plastic covering the guages is still very transparent and not yellowed at all.  The gray plastic dash looks very clean.  As far as being repainted.....do you think so?  I thought maybe the gray striping looks like the original Suzuki paint job.  One thing we both agree on is that the price is way too high, even if it's low mileage.  Anyway....nice looking little truck.
