The Russian JC Cosmo

[Funklove]

It is a story about my JC Cosmo 13B-RE JC3SE.
I bought it in 2004 from Siberia.
The engine was blown. The car was a garbage virtually.
The engine was dismounted and taked apart in winter 2004-2005.
I didnt know what the hell is a rotary engine at that time. Where are pistons?
The process of reborn was strated...
All of the work was made by my own hands (exept body). The work is not done by the way...

Awesome Looking Car !!!

[memski]

Well done, look forward to seeing the 20b :D

[John Yorke]

Nice work, it was just crying out for a 20B best of luck.

[Prof]

I have to keep looking at that paint - it's really growing on me. :yes

I guess you've got a 13B-RE block going spare at some point then, if you dropping a triple in there.

Looks good.:cheers

[Funklove]

Thank you for replies!
Well, I finally upgraded ignition setup yesterday! Autronic + Crane Cams Coils and wires give me a strongest spark fire ever!

I have a 20B, but not have enought time, money to start and finish new project. 13B is a big money sucker... 20B is money sucker twice!

[Steve Burnett]

Congrats on the time and effort you have put into that car. Even more so since you were originally looking for the pistons!

[Funklove]

That's one stunning Cosmo. Did it come with that front lower valance or is there a source?
It is fully custom.

[Ultraman_Cosmo]

very impressive indeed, especially as i can imagine cosmo's are far from plentiful in russia! should be able to get away from the rotary powered lada's in that one!

[gmogle]

I am amazed at this mate, you have made the Cosmo look incredible with the orange paint !!!!

More pics more pics !! Cant wait to see it finished.
I think you are gonna make more people want one !

[apex_lt]
