After much searching, wheeling, dealing, swindling, negotiating with the wife.....and what not....I finally picked up what i think is one hell of a head turning daily driver. I am now the proud owner of a 1974 mazda REPU (Rotary Engine Pick Up). I bought it from a car collector of sort(second owner of the Truck), he had 2 of them and one was all original. Mine on the other hand has had a full toyota 20R engine and trans swap performed by the original owner after The triangle destroyed itself. Has a weber carb and a hot head build, new clutch, the swap was done VERY well and just really needs some wiring cleaned up, a little brake work, and some fresh suspension. wheels and tires are already on the way

Its rathe amazing how complete the truck is. the odometer ready 80XXX and i believe it. it was obviously well loved for a while, but has lived in a shop for a lot of its life. the thing runs like a top and is a blast to drive. i cant believe how many options actually still function fully.
well, enough blab, now pics!











So far it's unclear what will go into this in the future. I'm going to run the 20R until it pop's and then the plan is to swap in a KA24de and 5 speed, or a 22RET which i happen to have laying around.
but anywho, I will post updates as i clean it up. There will be some taistfull Daily Driver mods coming soon as well,
