I photoshopped the emblems and some of the decals out to make it harder, but left a couple of small details in there that may give it away.




PS. I'm not sure if these are the original wheels.

I know this one has to be the rarest pickup truck out there.

Early 70's Mazda pickup? Not sure if it had an actual name or not.

My first thought was a Ford Courier, but I am not at all certain of that.

Edit: I am going to go with Mazda REPU. I think about 1975.

Mazda rotary pickup. Friend of mine used to own a Mazda RX-3 that thing was so fun to drive. VERY bad gas mileage.

You got it, it's a 1975 Mazda REPU (Rotary Engine Pickup). Only sold in NA, and they sold just over 16k over a 3 year period (74-77). It was the first and only rotary-engined pickup truck.

Here are the original pics. I found them on a different forum while looking for candidates for this thread, haha.

Looks like a 488 to me, tiny V8 engine not a 12 unfortunately

I'm pleasantly surprised at least two people know what that car is. Here's a hint that won't help people that don't know, very expensive car.

While everyone's pondering lex2k's car above I'll drop one.
Saw this beautiful beast while at the store yesterday.

What am I?
