The Creative Explorer Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 Mazda ( I am ready for going to bed, so not really wanted to do searching, we'll see if somebody could've find it )
Eeyore Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 It's a Mazda 757, predecessor to the 767 and the legendary 787B. It was powered by a short crank 3-rotor engine called the 13G. It was built by Mazdaspeed for Le Mans and other Prototype racing competitions.
The Creative Explorer Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 If I had to give it a nick-name, it would be; Humpback
torinobradley Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 How about this one... Year, make, model and name
Draggon Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 How about this one... Year, make, model and name 1976 Chevy Vega Kammback Wagon. ??
84vanagon Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 Yes, Yes, Yes, no... 1976 Chevrolet Vega Nomad wagon conversion.
torinobradley Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 (edited) Correct! Were the Vega Nomads a conversion or factory? I have only seen one and imediately wanted to shove a small block in it... But the owner wouldn't sell it. I had a '74 Wagon at the time with a 350. Fun car... By the way, you, me and this car are all in Texas... Edited November 5, 2008 by torinobradley

Eeyore Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 Cheers Nick! If it's Mazda and/or Rotary I tend to know a fair bit but I would be the first to admit my knowledge on Sports Car/Prototype racing isn't that good but I'm learning all the time.
torinobradley Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 Anyone for this one? Not only what it is but what is unique about this one.
Draggon Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 Anyone for this one? Not only what it is but what is unique about this one. Its a Bradley GTII, but not the usual VW engine based car, this one is an Electric vehjicle, one of 50 made in 1980
diymirage Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 Its a Bradley GTII, but not the usual VW engine based car, this one is an Electric vehjicle, one of 50 made in 1980 you got all that from the "GTII electric" emblazed on the hood ?
Draggon Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 you got all that from the "GTII electric" emblazed on the hood ? Nope. Knew it was a Bradley so I googled "Bradley GT" and this car was one of the first hits.
torinobradley Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 Good job!!! I didn't realize the picture was so darn big and detailed when I put it up.
The Creative Explorer Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 @Torinobradley, I think it would be helpful if we did one at a time How about this one?
Nick F40 Posted November 6, 2008 Author Posted November 6, 2008 wasn't it called the Manta Ray or something?
white00gt Posted November 8, 2008 Posted November 8, 2008 (edited) Is it a Spectre R42? Edited November 8, 2008 by white00gt
The Creative Explorer Posted November 8, 2008 Posted November 8, 2008 No Nick, No Harry, Sorry guys Time for a hint; It is European, from a unexpected builder.
The Creative Explorer Posted November 9, 2008 Posted November 9, 2008 Nope, quite far from the Netherlands
The Creative Explorer Posted November 10, 2008 Posted November 10, 2008 Think in Eastern Europe. and it has a V8 Engine. I believe all of their passenger cars (3, 4 &5 doors ) had the engine in the back.
