This rare and classic 1968 Mazda Cosmo Sports L10A coupe was inspected for a client at HAA Kobe auction on 9 June 2016. It is the type of collector car we specialise in.
Full production of the Cosmo sports 2-door coupe began in May 1967 and lasted through 1972. Cosmos were built by hand at a rate of only about one per day, for a total of 1,519 (343 Series I cars and 1,176 Series II cars). See Mazda Cosmo Wiki for more details.
Faults included rust and other issues as pictured in close up photos, but overall in good condition for being nearly 50 years old. It had 33,610 km on the odometer.
This vehicle had a start price of 4 million Yen but was cancelled from auction (reason unknown). May be back for re-auction on Saturday 16 June 2016.

The pictures are typical of the information we provide prior to auction for each vehicle of interest, with any faults shown so you can clearly see the condition before we discuss whether to bid, and your budget.
It is vital when sourcing your vehicle to use an agent that takes the time to physically check each vehicle and looks beyond the auction pictures and report to confirm condition. Some vehicles may have an unpleasant smoke or other odour, rust underneath, or other faults which are impossible to know without inspection.
