Stylin'! They don't make 'em like they used to.

Now for some 15x7" +14 offset Watanabes, fully adjustdable Ohlins coilovers, quad-headlight HID's, 2.5" mandrel bent Fujitsubo exhaust, and twin-turbo monster-port 13B and she's home and hosed.

Who's a lucky boy then?

Gorgeous car!

Looks like you will be having some fun cleaning it all up, but it looks to be in wonderful, original condition so it's a great start.

If you need someone really good to re-build the engine, and you would want to keep it original, I hope, let me know and I'll put you onto someone who does great work with rotaries.

Saw the old Mazda emblem on the plate in the 1st pic as it was loading & thought of a mate's old Mazda 1500 SS - then saw the 2nd pic & promptly forgot it!

Very Nice Danny!

congrats danny. she's a beauty

Thanks Michael. I have to pinch myself everytime I venture into the rear of the shed....I can't believe it's finally here. There's a bit of a story to the acquisition which I'll tell at a later date.

Cheers,
Danny

does it have anything to do with a dream, a hunt and a find?

Magnificent!!!

Congratulations, great to see someone have and make their dream come true. Mine's an A110 Renault Alpine, a lotto win away unfortunately!

Brilliant find. :mrgreen:

A really interesting and nicely shaped and proportioned special car. This clearly is a remarkable find. Recently I chatted with a bloke who bought a Montreal at a sheriffs auction and he has left the car in its original condition as it is so presentable. The Cosmo looks so good in the body and paint and most of the interior that "restoring" it will be something to dwell on.

Very Nice Danny!

I think it has hints of the old 1500SS about it too. Ii it a Bertonne design too?
