    Last ride was my VS Berlina on gas and modified, possibly for sale soon, if I can let it go that is....Paid $4800

    This was my first car,a 74 RX3 sedan bought for $3000 when I got my licence in 1991.I was lucky enough to go halves with my parents to buy it,they had no idea what a rotary was! It was the biggest piece of s**t but had a 12a bridgeport which was pretty quick back in the day! Felt even quicker due to the fact everything was so loose and just about falling apart and it was so damn noisy!Many a V8 VN/VP/VR was embarassed after having a run with this little buzz box.Had the best of times in that car...
