1975 REPU possibly for sale - value?
Hello fellow REPU owners, unfortunately I may be forced to sell the REPU due to idiotic apartment managers, etc. - very long story. It's a 1975 model, and yes it actually has the battery door on it and a very straight front valence.
Anyways, I am curious what you guys think the truck is worth. It has a later model 13B in it (big port), modified carb (no smog crap), K&N air filter, dual outlet header w/straight exhaust into a muffler, 14" gold Enkei lookalike wheels, painted RX-3 SP blue. The body is straight, no rust on body, very little surface rust in bed. It's a very clean example, and quite quick. Smog exempt in 2004 in CA.
Here's a URL:
http://www.geocities.com/mmanitta@sbcglobal.net/repu.html
Still kinda working on the site but that URL should work. I am considering listing on eBay but I haven't had much luck with that lately (deadbeat bidders). Any suggestions? I will try to keep it if at all possible, but I have 2 other Mazdas right now so it may not be doable. I suppose if I received an irresistable offer I wouldn't refuse.
Located in Sacramento. Email me at mmanitta@sbcglobal.net with any questions.
Thanks,
Mike

Hey, that was Bob Maybell's REPU,
wasn't it? I was interested back then... I think I remember his asking price, too... Wish I could be upbeat about values, but these days, used cars and trucks--even collectible rotary rarities--don't seem to be bringing what they ought to. Dunno, it sure looks nice, but I don't know anyone that's got money to spend right now... and I've seen rx-4's in lesser shape bring more than REPU's. I know I'd want more for it than I'd likely get...
Wish I could make you an offer! I think I'd look for a place to live that would let me keep it, if I were you...

Yeah I'm working on that right now actually, the place I'm currently living really sucks anyway. Yes it was Bob Ms truck, I've had it little over a year now and it's been great. Mike

Any place to store it so you can keep it Mike? I bet it could be stored for $60 a month at a yard.

Well thanks for the responses, I finally fixed the parking situation where I live so things are cool. I had a few people interested but most were low-ballers so it was basically a waste of time, I'll probably just keep it anyhow.
Not sure on mileage on engine, I'm guessing under 10k. I've only put 1500 or so on it in over a year.

I'm glad you're able to keep 'er !
I'm guessing you didn't buy this REPU just to re-sell it...
And parking is such a 'stupid' detail...(Though I know how it is, not having the space!)
