Hey guys,



I have a 74 REPU that I have owned for around 6 years. It is in good overall condition,and runs pretty good. The previous owner had a new engine built for it just before I bought it,and allegedly it is street-ported,although I cannot substantiate that claim. The truck came from southern,Georgia,and is basically rust free aside from a few spots where paint is starting to bubble. The truck needs a new paint job,and maybe the dings,and such repaired,but overall it looks really good at 10 feet. The paint is chipped on the leading edges of a few panels,but it isn't rusted in those places. The truck has factory AC but the compressor is not installed,and I have never had the system work in the time I have owned it,and nor do I care to get it working. The truck has not been used much,and I have maybe put 5000 miles on it in the time I have owned it. The engine idles a bit high,and it could be a simple adjustment,but it doesn't bother me so I have not bothered to fix it yet. The previous owner lowered the truck with blocks in the rear,and cut the front springs. The front springs being cut has affected the steering a bit,but it isn't bad in my opinion,and I can get you some stock height springs if you care( I plan to raise the truck back up if I keep it). The battery box is surprisingly in pretty good shape aside from the sliding tray is missing,and the latch that goes over the top of the battery is missing,so you have to use a large zip tie to hold the inner lid in. The front valence is in great shape aside from chipped paint,and I also have a reproduction fiberglass valence that is unused,and in my garage. The truck is rolling on 92-93ish Mazda B2200 wheels that are good looking,but the tires need to be replaced,and might be soon.



I am looking to get a Pre-RX-7 Mazda rotary coupe,sedan,wagon to trade for this truck as I would like to be able to take my kids with me to shows,and such. I am looking to trade for a similar condition car to my truck. I don't want a project,but I don't need it to be perfect. I really like RX-3 wagons,but I am open to any model/vintage passenger car. If you have something,and want to trade let me know. If you have questions let me know. Here is a link to pics of the truck. They are not the greatest pics,but you get the idea.
