Old School Rotaries

I’ve always had a thing for rotary engined cars. I’ve owned both an FD and an FC, and have spent countless hours wrenching on them, swapping engines, etc. I’ve always wanted an old rotary like an RX-2, RX-3, R100, because they can look awesome and they are smog exempt. I came across this RX-4 the other day and it renewed my daydreams of owning an old school rotary.

This car is owned by Juni Asuncion of JRX Rotary out in Southern California. I remember meeting Juni years ago when he lived in the Bay Area and owned a widebody FC convertible with a 13B-RE from a Cosmo. Congratulations on putting together this proper looking RX-4.
