The only vehicle that comes to mind where a 12a would "just bolt into" would be a Lotus Super 7 clone designed to accept that engine. It would be a kit car, and far less practical than the 7, but there are kits out there.

Sooo, whats the story here? Got a 12a and no car, or a trashed car with a good engine? If the engine needs a good home, and is in great running condition, PM me. I am gathering the items to restore my 7...uh RX-7, not a Super 7, well you know.

There are kits to put them in Starlets....try Florida or NY. They WILL fit in just about anything RWD, just gotta fab the mounts, which isn't problem since the motor is quite light...break out the measuring tape, level, and a welder!

...gunna stick one in my '72 Volvo 142 Wagon one day!
