This car is an LC10 model, the second generation of the Suzuki Fronte launched in 1967.
It received several changes over the first generation, most significantly in the drive system which went from a front-engine front-wheel drive to a rear-engine rear-wheel drive layout.
It also adopted the “Coke Bottle” styling that was popular at the time.
Its relatively high performance and great design appealed to all types of people. It became a big hit along with the Honda N360 and Subaru 360 both of which had a displacement of 356cc.
This particular model is a “Super Deluxe,” which was the top of the range. The Super Deluxe model was equipped with reclining seats, two-speed windshield wipers, and other practical features.
The exterior has been painted from white to red, and there are signs of wear and rust on various parts.
Inside it has kept original seats, but they are not in good condition with significant tears.
The engine also requires maintenance in order to start, so this is a restoration base.
The number of 2nd generation Frontes have declined drastically over the years, and due to their rarity values have seen a significant increase.
