Description[]
Street Roader is an original design by Larry Wood depicting a modified 1988 Suzuki Samurai. Early versions of this tooling have "SUZUKI" cast into the front grill; it was removed in mid-late 1995.
Street Roader was featured in the Heroes on Hot Wheels television series driven by Michael Valiant, Henry “Pops” Valiant, and Quincy.
