Hello, I'm Daniel, the guy in the video. I'd like to, if I may, set some things straight.

I'm an Aussie & have never been to South Africa. The car... looks to be the real deal based upon what toyo kogyo (@youtube toyokogyomazda) has said.

I've been back and have made a new video detailing pretty much all the mentioned points except the some of the interior details.

Stay tuned, I'm trying to tackle quite a few different things at the same time, so it may take longer than expected to get that particular video up.

Other than that, I'd just like to say "hi" to you all, this being my first time in this forum 'n all.

 

that black thing is a boost solenoid for an evc and that hood its the odula hood.

 

Hi, would love to know a price...

Riz.

 

Ditto

 

wish i could just walk to my local pick in pull and grab the miscellaneous 7 part that just stopped working

 

COOL THANKS. I have a mate who is from SA and he sounds alot like you, didn't pick you for an aussie hahahaha.

Japan is one hell of a great place to get around..in my case by train.I stayed with my aunty in Fukuoka for 3 weeks and visited every corner of Kyushu & Hiroshima/Tokyo...looking much forward to a revisit in next few years...

Welcome aboard here and will keep an eye out for your YOUTUBE vids...

PEACE

Lol. Kyushu is my backyard! I lived in Fukuoka, and now live in Tosu in Saga. (Here's more of my work (Japanese Castle stuff): http://www.japanese-castle-explorer....ml?view=Kyushu )

And, thx for your support also. Much appreciated.

 

let it rot, along with the old original cosmo's they have in that one scrap yard in japan.

 

Surely you jest..

 

did you see the FEED sticker on the radiator of the weeds FC?
And the RE amemiya badge on th FB?!?!?!?
I didnt even know they worked on FB's!

 

I want that Cosmo... Just to own it. No further plans.

Riz.

 

they probably think the same of us when they see some back yard filled with old american classic cars rotting away. but it's not uncommon in the US is it? we see it in japan, where the cars are made, and we think it's sacreligious... same difference, roles reversed. yes it sucks but it's not uncommon for just about any country, as for us those cars were very common as it is for them those cars used to be all over.
