In high school...1974-1977 my friends mom had a Mazda wagon with the rotary engine. It came with a 4 barrel carb with 2 barrels blocked off. We fixed it so all worked and it was a hoot to drive and could beat most small block v8s in quarter mile

I had an 87 Prelude a while back, a good amount of the undercarriage bolts were literally rusted together. The only point of torquing on them was to snap the bolt in half so you could start tapping it out lol. After messing with a car like that I just started buying them from down south.

Father drove it until 1990 & had to stop driving due to a stroke, was sold to wife of one of my nephew's who drive it for several more years. Was CHEAP to maintain & got reasonable fuel mileage. 🤠

Been at a junkyard, trying to get the block for my '92 Ranger, and get her back on the road. On Saturday, guess what I saw? A Mazda 2200! Literally, the first truck I saw with the Perkins 2.2 diesel in it! It would make for an awesome resto project, if I had the space and money to restore it. And, it would be a learning experience, since I've never worked on a diesel motor before.

Thanks for sharing that. it really takes me back! My first car was an '82 Mazda GLC, but the sedan body style, which meant a transverse 1.5 and FWD. It's odd that the drivetrains differed so much. Maybe the wagon was a style update of the older round headlight version. The blue interior and the front end look pretty identical, though, from what I can tell.

I travelled in exactly one of these in the same color from Springfield, Illinois to Chicago in the summer of 1991. We drove past Peoria and it took 8 hrs flat of non stop driving. I was in the right passenger seat. This was the 323 wagon. Just another Japanese import of the time like the Corolla wagon, Sentra wagon, Lancer Wagon and the Civic sedan. Thats it. The RX 7 was all the rage back then. Hope you restore it to its pristine glory.

OMG you really souped that wagon up! My dad had a '74 RX-4, and I can recall riding home from the car dealer with him. That car was SO much fun to drive. I seem to recall going over 50mph in 2nd gear - it really did hum. 4-speed with the 12B motor. That car rusted out in about 8 years with our salty roads in NJ. Manual choke as I recall. I rebuilt the engine due to a small triangular corner seal getting loose and jamming up between an apex seal and the housing. I remember being fascinated that I could carry the block myself into our basement it was so light in weight. Have fun with that project! I test drove an RX-8 when they were being sold - the fun and spirit I recall of the 12B was gone :( I don't believe they ever really were able to solve issues with seals. The rotor had 3 corner seals on each side of the rotor, 3 apex seals, 3 corner seals, 3 side seals on each side, and one or two oil rings on each side IIRC. That is a like 20 give or take.

Nice car. Had a 1979 Mazda GLC 2 door hatchback with a 3 speed automatic in original condition a long time ago. It was rear wheel drive, but wasn't too bad in the snow once you added weight. It looked similar to your wagon, but it had round headlights. Unfortunately, a bad head gasket and a warped head did it in with about 113K miles.

There are still a fair amount of those 323 wagons here in New Zealand and about 90 percent of them have rotaries in them. People keep them immaculate as the rear wheel drive was so rare.

I'll bet that was a fun wagon/estate back in the day. In other markets that was the Mazda 323 or Familia estate. In the UK we got those rear-wheel drive estates alongside the first of the front-wheel drive hatchbacks and saloons/sedans for about a year. They were good little cars but they could rust like nobodies' business and they pretty much all disappeared due to rust and being worked to death years ago...

Fun fact: this generation of 323 was manufactured in Indonesia with different front end from 1990-1997 from Mazda 626 GC It's called: Vantrend (this wagon), Baby Boomer, and MR90 (both are hatchbacks) -And for most weird moment, is at one point Porsche wanted to enter Indonesian market by collaborating with Indomobil which is sole agent for Suzuki and Mazdas (today only manages Suzuki). But it's failed because Marvi Affandi (at that time head of Indomobil) made a -*-replica of Porsche 911 using this car underpinnings and 911 toolings!-*- As the result, Mazda and Porsche got angry. Only 50 replica 911 (Marvia 911 Carrera) was made- the porsche mazda is somewhat disputed
