1997 Suzuki Sierra Soft Top
Gday my name is Jon Spink , I have grown up with Suzuki 4wds in the family since I was a young fella. With my parents having a long wheel base Sierra soft top, which followed on with my older brother purchasing an early 1996 Sierra soft top. This inspired myself to purchase my 1997 Coil Spring Sierra soft top which I have owned for over 23 years. My younger brother followed on to purchase his 1994 Sierra soft top. All with our family custom number plates . In recent years I have also purchased a 2017 px2 single cab Ford Ranger 4wd for my plumbing business and touring. Which didn’t stop there with a recent purchase of a 1985 Holden Drover Ute which is what they say is a rebadged Suzuki Sierra I am currently in the process of restoring.

This car is currently stock and yellow. Since I have owned this car over the last year it has had a big go over from sitting in a paddock on a farm for 10-15 years. I have re done all the brakes , new belts , water pump filters to the engine , carby overhaul , interior clean out with new heater box , new dash and gti seats.
This car will soon have all the panels repaired and be dent free, painted red with a lot of new mods and accessories, this will be updated when completed.
