Depends on what you are looking for, and if you want to pay the right amount

djmtsu · 01-14-2009, 07:21 PM

RX-4 wagon, maybe a coupe or one of the RX-5's/Cosmo's.

Rotarydave · 01-14-2009, 08:37 PM

Cosmo/Rx-5 I could probably help with depending on what condition you wanted and what kind of car. All together it is hard to say on many of the others because of the size of the collection we are trying to put together. The best example I can give of that is the R100s. Although I have a bunch of them when you look at what each of them is and its place in the collection it is hard to seperate form any of them. We have a 70 and 71 that we are restoring or preserving, I have a 71 that was a drag car that we have not decided what we are doing with it. I have a frt end collision 70 that I would love to rebuild with a tube frame frt end as a driver, then we have the 1200 wagon and 1000 p/u both of which are being converted to rotary so do I get rid of the drag car or do I hold onto it because I know I am going to need the parts for the other 5.... Kind of the same story with the Cosmos but I have a little more flexibility there and I still know where are couple more are that are decent again depending on what you are wanting to do with it to get you to the right one.

djmtsu · 01-14-2009, 08:46 PM

I would love to have a Cosmo/RX-5 as a daily. I would give it a few updates, some nice mesh wheels, and drive it everyday! So with that said, I am looking for one that is not perfect, but all there. Drivetrain would be optional, since I would put something a little newer and stronger under the hood.

Let me know what you have or can find. I really would appreciate it. You can PM me or send me an email with pics if you come up with anything.

Thanks Dave!

I may have a one now that is a possiblity it actually is supposed to have a pretty fresh engine in it basically no miles on it and the engine isn't exactly stock nor is the exhaust. 76 originally an automatic car has been converted to stick, I will have to see what kind of overall shape it is in typically the hoods and decklids are rusted really bad and they are a bitch to try to find, I know of a guy in Cali that said he can do them in either glass or CF and his looked really good at 7-stcok this year. let me see if my wife can get some decent pictures of it and make sure we have a clean title to it and we can go from there.

Impressive is about all I can say. I hope you find the time and means to fulfill at least half your ambitions. I'd like to acuire a 79LE someday to bring back. That one vehicle seems a major commitment. Yours is a different level altogether.

WildBillMassey · 03-24-2010, 04:53 PM

A few months ago I moved to Texas (my wife is in the Air Force) and we where looking for a house in Cibilo, and we passed this place. I almost wrecked the freaking car I was driving because all I saw was a sea of rotary cars! I am also a absolute rotary nut and have owned more RX7's than I can begin to remember. Anyway, I have been searching trying to find out what this place was about, there is no signage.

Dude, if you need some help with your projects, let me know, I will volunteer to help for some shop space because I am picking up a 10th AE tomorrow to restore and I need somewhere to work on it. I have my own tools.

i drove thru there today and it looks like there are more cars than what is pictured on this thread, the collection grows! LOL

RotorDad · 03-24-2010, 07:46 PM

Damn man you have some really great cars, I would love to see some of these get restored.

Rotarydave · 03-27-2010, 02:10 PM

thanks for the comments, rotordad they will get restored the big thing is me retiring from the Army so i have the time to do it.

Wild Bill, where are you getting your 10th AE from ?

Yea my shop is kind of cool although we have had some severe setbacks recently dealing with a friend of mine that used to work there. If anyone comes by the shop the only person authorized to sell anything there is my wife anything else that is sold there or from there should be considered stolen. That is the reason I am asking where you are getting your AE from as I have 3 of them. My former friend burned several people on the forums badly and hurt us as well. We can't reopen the shop until we have done several thousand dollars worth of work on it. I am currently in Iraq but if you would like to email my wife she can give you more information (kiddynrse@aol.com)

djmtsu · 03-31-2010, 03:48 PM
