Looking for a 1962 Mazda R360

I know these little guys are rare as hell... I did some search and seems like there have been occasions of people selling the R360 here.. so maybe the mazda community can help me point to the right direction??

I currently drive a 2008 Mitsubishi Evo. Before that, I had a Nissan Z.. loved both cars.. a family member is looking for the R360.. quite different from my taste, but I'll try my best looking for one.

Why is that? Are they really worth much money? Or just costly to restore?

I also saw RPM made threads regarding this car, that is why I signed up here.. hoping to get some insider knowledge on where these little secret cars are hiding at

Yea, I looked at a local one up here in Canada a few years ago now. No idea if the guy still has it or not, it was tough. Needed alot of work.

It is not very likely that he will find one here locally,and if so it is gonna cost a pretty penny since it is such a rare car...comprende mr r.p.m???

Cheers,
