Mazda Dealership. You'll need to have the part numbers. The factory manuals, including parts manuals can be found here: Foxed.ca

Beware of some rotary specialty sites that are are good but they show factory part numbers for reference only and the part MAY NOT be factory. There is one site, I will not name, that does this.

MazdaTrix is one site you will get the factory part.

RockAuto is good, but does not carry OEM parts.

Many parts are just plain not available and have not been for several years and are not coming back. Try getting rear drums for a 1979/1980.

Mazdatrix / Racing Beat / Atkins Rotary / Pineapple Racing covers the standard upgrade and maintenance parts. You may find some parts through your local stealership, but expect to get a lot of funny looks and blank stares. Best to go in with part numbers and just ask them to look up availability and cost. Beyond that, these cars are 40+ years old, and there's a fair amount of ingenuity required to keep them up and running well.
