Ford Courier
Welcome aboard! I like Herbie with a rotary engine also. The Courier is somewhat like the Mazda REPU, sharing some parts, but not too many. For better support with your Courier, I would suggest you join the Courier owner/restorers group. You can find them at;

Lots of luck, all of these little trucks are hard to come by now, Orville

Did you trade that guy in Houston for the bug?
Last I heard he wouldn't sell it, only wanted to trade for a vette or something.

i got to for a couple of days the 3rd day it lost all compression in the rear rotor and was going to the oil pan it kind of made me crap a little when i pulled the dip stick and compression released out of the hole lol i found another engine i just cant afford to rebuild that one just yet the apex seals where 125 each and the gaskets where 550 and i found a good motor for 200 so he says well hope for the best
