Rusty pair of Mazda Cosmo 110S [Japanese Rustoseums]

The sight of a rust Mazda Cosmo 110S is a sad sight, but seeing a pair rust together is even sadder: The better looking one of the pair appears to be the short wheelbase L10A. The other one seems to be similar in length but I can’t tell for sure if it also is another…




Family Album Treasures: Mazda Cosmo AP Student
