Very nice as far as I can see BUT , I'd need many more pics of everything not shown and a lot of truthful info to give an opinion on worth . The rotary is a good motor but as the rotor gaps take the place of cylinders / pistons , if the edges are worn ( which is the case after about 80,000 miles ) then compression falls and emissions are bad and performance suffers . 8)

I thought it was interesting they talked about the similar rear window design/angle.

I took these pics a while ago to show the almost identical angle between my 1960 Anglia and my 1964 Mercury Monterey.

James -- Cool, I've been wanting to see these comparison photos for years. You do realize that you are probably the only person on Earth to own both of these cars at the same time.
