Title: My 1974 RX4 Coupe ALL ORIGINAL & Still NEW
Post by: maxg765 on November 23, 2006, 05:01:06 PM
Hello All,

Look what I just bought!

It might kill everyone on this forum who loves these cars to know that I poses a almost new never restored 1974 RX4 with the first year of the 13B engine. It has 33000 original miles and has never had a scratch, ding, stone chip, rust, or any paint fading or defect. The entire car is as it was when new inside and out and it wears ALL its original paint, interior and mechanics. The car needs nothing either as it has been stored and maintined yearly in a controlled enviroment by its loving owner-a car nut. I love this car.
I\'m posting some pictures but note that these were taken when I first went to see the car prior to purchase, which was from the original 94 year old owner, it had not been washed or detailed yet. This will give an indication of its amazing time capsule state/condition.  I will post some better pictures soon.  In my excitment I forgot to grab some good pictures of the front seats but they are just as new as the rear.  The only thing I have to do is re-install the raidio which is currently under the glove box.  The Elderly owners had removed it (without cutting wires) and put a compass in its place.  No modifications or cuts were done.  I will just slide the radio back into place.  If your wondering what some of the off white creamy colored stuff is in the engine compartment and between some of the body pannels its rust-proofing that was applied twice a year by thier Mazda dealer.  Also the driver seat backs still have the covers on them as I had not removed it before the pictures, all the seats were always covered from day one and are all as new and clean.  I think the owner never enjoyed the car and only took care of it-lucky me!!!!

I feel like I am back in time when I look at it.

You have those rare brake/indicator lights that are identical. In europe we got the all red, all orange and not the 50/50 type that is on your car. Anyway, if you should brake one of those, give me an PM and i will help you out, since i have 4 units. This car is not for sale, i understand that of course, but it would be interresting to know how many £ to make this not for sale to OK:mmmm

I\'ve always believed that there\'s 1 more of everything to be obtained if you look hard enough! This proves it! Well done, what a find.
