Thanks for the pics. They let you keep it you dog? Nice. Now you must scan the whole book and put it in PDF format and host it. :D

The Kamm tail on that RX-500 is ugly. A very interesting looking car.

^^ ill scan most of the book, just not the chapter on piston engines. i dont know what a PDF thing is but if you tell me ill put it in it and everyone can read the book!

I know this thread is quite old, but came across this site which has several more images of the proposed RX-500 during the 1970's. The images in the previous posts above seem to be deleted, so here is the link below.

Actually, I much prefer the RX-7 than the RX-500, however if the tail of the RX-500 was improved, it may have been a really great looking rotary!
