1972 Cosmo for Sale

My buddy in Japan located this car at a store. If anyone is interested, please let me know and I can forward his contact information. He can arrange shipping and everything.

Apparently, since the car is over 30 years old it can be registered as a collectors vehicle without issues here in the US.
