I have just been given a pair of doors that came of a very early 1.0 Sierra, they are a metal frame with canvas covering. Did any sierras have factory canvas doors? Are they worth saving?
Will get a pic

Once upon a time Suzuki's japan website had an 'old car information' section that had all the specs and pictures of all the different suzuki's the manufactured.
I'm kicking myself for never saving the html pages as i can no longer find the info.
On it i remember seeing the half doors with canvas top and full canvas doors on the LJ and SJ vehicles.
If you don't want them i'm sure everyone else will (including me!)

They may be LJ doors but if the are sierra doors then I would keep them. Damo will pay $2500 for them I am sure.

They certainly look Sierra shape.
The JA spec Soft-tops and Holden Drover Soft-tops came out with metal half doors and canvas (more vinyl-ish, in truth) tops, but there was never a door available with a canvas lower half. These doors you have Shep look like they have been converted from LJ50/80 Soft-top doors (the hinges look the same). The handle/latch looks poorer than the LJ handle, so I suspect some sort of home-made thing going on. That said, they'd certainly be worth getting an Auto Trimmer to re-cover them and hang to just for their uniqueness.

They are LJ soft half doors - home made or genuine I don't know. The one shown is Drivers side
