AL Bert wanted to build something rotary-oriented, but he also wanted to take the path less traveled and do something that wasn't done hundreds of times over. After purchasing his 1971 Mazda RX-2, he began modifying the classic JDM icon with the help of a specialty rotary garage, JRX Rotary. Today, the car is a cool resto-mod rotary warrior, which looks and sounds great.
