Background: the Carry 4WD

Suzuki has supplied the Carry to other manufacturers to badge as their own — Mazda since 1989, later Nissan and Mitsubishi — so the same underlying truck circulates under several names, which is another reason the parts supply runs deep. Carrys were mostly ordered in plain white for trade use; this one is White. Suzuki has built the Carry since 1961 — eleven generations, and the oldest nameplate the company still sells. It was Japan's best-selling truck nameplate for thirty-nine consecutive years from 1971, passing four million units by 2010.

The paperwork on this 1998 Carry 4WD

It shows 9,702 on the clock. That reading of 9,702 came to us without a unit attached, and we have left it exactly as found.

Mechanical specification of this Carry 4WD

Power comes from the F6A, a 660cc 3-cylinder unit. A 1998 vehicle on the F6A is running an engine Suzuki had already built in enormous numbers by that point. The F6A drives through a manual gearbox. Listed drivetrain equipment includes selectable 2WD / 4WD high, an extra-low crawler gear and an axle lock.

Owning a Carry 4WD

Four-wheel drive on a Carry 4WD was specified in Japan for field and forestry work, not for road holding. This 1998 Carry 4WD spent its working life on Japanese registration, where a light goods vehicle faces its first statutory shaken inspection at two years and another every two years after that. The asking price is $13,800.
