Can someone please provide ALL of GREGS contact info to me or another Mod or admin. We would like to provide this info to any members who still need to get ahold of him to bug him for money he has taken.
Its obvious the guy was getting picked on by that banzai peep w/o mercy. Cant a guy defend himself when constantly hen-pecked? i thought the rules said something about thread hijacking? Are you going to ban BZ and RR for doing that here?

ps. Gregs, you need to pay Mario back too Yes, I know this guy personally. He got me in the place.

CD Cosmo - 75-81

Dont know about the 76 models but in 1975, the 75-model Japanese car-of-the-year sold near 55,000 examples in Japan alone.

As an export it was a flop so its best year in OZ (1975) saw very poor results with 1976 even less.

Mazda did two versions

Series-I = 75-78
Series-II = 79-81

4X110mm is the same as RX2,3,4,and SA/FB. I thought the Cosmos used a different bolt pattern, something really wierd.

No?

yep all the US Spec Cosmos were 4X120, as for how many were built mazda's numbers only show about 10k for North America however almost 9k of those were built in 76, i should know i have about 0.15% of North American Cosmos and I think between me and the atkins clan we can probably claim to have owned at least 1% at one time or another.

that's how i did the '83 tranny i put in my 808 back in '93.

Funny that I found this forum. I couldn't believe no one picked up this car from me for $500 delivered. I only had this for sale to fund some of my Jag XJ6 conversion. The one thing I've learned is to jump on a deal. I have taken it off the market by the way. Greg seems like a nice enough guy, I'm glad I wasn't gonna give him credit for this car from what I read. I think I'm gonna get a 12A from my freind and get this car rolling down the road for a few hundred bucks, I'll do it for everyone elses pleasure.

search for gregs in good guy/bad guy section.
