Nice find! If you look realllllllly hard at the door, you can barely make out the "S" and the "K" on the door plate, so I am going to go with Sidekick, and a early one going by the grill...

ha ha! Very cool!  Thanks for posting!

With a Bird bath though the t-case.

Ahh, you don't have to look that close.  The amber turn signals tells you it's a sidekick.
It is pre 96, because of the non-"puffy" grille.
Actually, it looks like it has the zip out side windows on the soft top, so that would make it a 95.....since 95 was the only year that you could get the zip out side windows top (second gen. top) and the non-"puffy" grille.
Of course this is all assuming that it is all factory and not a "custom" build.

 I noticed the grill also, and it looks ALOT like my 90 model, and my turn signals are clear... did you notice that it looks like it is a 2wd, since the "cap" in the center of the wheel looks solid  and chromey?

Sidekicks had amber turn signals from the factory.  Trackers had clear turn signals from the factory.
Yeah, I noticed the center of the front wheels too.  Couldn't tell if it was aftermarket hubs on it, just center caps (or center caps covering auto hubs), or what.
Like I said, if it is all factory parts (top, grille, turn signals, hood), then it is a 95 sidekick.  But it is obvious it has some aftermarket stuff on it (wheels at least, and probably paint and stripes), so who knows.

I saw that commercial this weekend.... "and a new car".... nice....

 Sky, I am didn't mean to contradict you on the turnsignal thing. I misread what you had typed about the amber lights. Sorry.

No problem.  I just thought maybe you were saying that you have a sidekick with clear signal lights (meaning either you or someone else had swapped them out.....I've done that myself, BTW).

I couldnt tell you what it said on the door to save my life, but it does have the ''S'' on the grill and not ''GEO". I like those wheels too.

acually its not the suzuki symbol on the grille. its a different symbol (more like the pepsi logo...)

dang trademark/copyright laws! I guess its a mystery and no one will ever figure out what it is(where's Perry when you need him?)  thanks for the vid. BTW

Heh, pretty cool. Yep the logos have been altered & I'm gonna say the decal on the door/quarter is brushed in too, it doesn't look like it belongs. Black bumpers & mirrors, flat grille, it's early & not an Lsi.
I like the "Beep beep" of the horn when it lands. For those that remember the the old Geo Tracker commercials... Tracker pulls up with smiling occupants... "Beep beep... HI!!" *gg I don't miss that commercial*
