Febuary 2010 RHD Rotary Of The Month Winner

***ZGN*** · 03-02-2010, 12:10 PM

Congratulations to our winner Madaz.
Special thanks to all who participated in the February Rotary RHD of the month.

Madaz
Location: New Zealand
969 Bertone Mazda Luce RX87. Its in original unrestored condition apart from a partial repaint in the early 80's. It has a 13A engine with 87000 kms on the clock. These were Mazda's flagship in Japan back in 1969. I dont plan to modify it but one day when I have enough coin I would like to give it a full restoration.

It was lowered as you can see in the pics but its now back to its original height.

These more recent pics below are at original height.

Getting creative with the RX87 Badges

13A Engine with factory air con.

Hi guys, Sorry I resurrected this old thread because I'm not sure where to post these pics.
Anyway I imported my Luce to Australia late last year and I thought I would share a couple recent pics.

East meets West in the land of OZ.
