1973 Mazda RX-2 w/ Bridgeported 13B Rotary Engine - LOW miles (92k on car 3k on engine) eBay listing: goo.gl/zxJa6C Short Description: It is with a heavy heart that I have to sell this car. My only hope is that it goes to someone that will take care of it and build it back up to a beautiful running state. When running, it was pushing 300hp. The car is non-running currently - I have been told by multiple gear-heads that it is most likely just the apex seals and and other minor rebuild things that need done. I currently dont have the ability to maintain it. ***Seller Notes: “1) Engine turns over but does not start. 2) Some surface scratches on the paint here and there (good shape for a 73 classic). 3) Driver seat has rips, as does the center arm-rest. 4) Some rust starting at the bottom of the rear window seal. 5) Missing the radio. 6) Performance street tires with lots of tread.”*** The Cars Story: It’s been owned by my grandpa, my dad, and then myself (and back and forth between us a number of times), and now it looks like I need to part ways with it. This Mazda has a few bumps and bruises but is in nice shape for being mostly original. Its had a roll-bar installed as well as other autocross features for racing, had a 13b bridge-ported engine installed (only 3k on this engine) and tuned by THE Louie Rivera at the Mazda-Honda Shop, it still has the original burnt orange paint and pin-striping, and when running can push some serious torque. All in all, I would love to keep it, but cannot afford to. So I would like to sell it to someone who I KNOW will take care of it, restore it, drive it, enjoy it.
