Rare Rotary Powered Car - NSU Spider

Made only from 1964 - 1967...spotted this one in La Jolla recently, sitting in the midst of antique Jags, Jensen-Healys, Corvettes, etc.

That's a rolling piece of art.
I wouldn't drive it though, finding replacement parts for that curtiss-wright\nsu engine is very hard. Finding body and chassis parts may be a bit easier, there were more Prinz models on the market
