Neckar Jagst 2 (fiat 600) rotary!

i like engine bays with lots of room to work! If you're not in a hurry 0 to 60 in five minutes is not a problem. I had a Puch Maxi 49cc two-speed moped. Had to peddle it up hill, but downhill and on flats it was a nice little scooter!

I am amazed that nobody reacts to the fact that I again played with a rotary
got fired 1.5 years back and it was my no job project

there are 2 neckars
neckar nsu
and
nekar fiat

this car is made with both tags
but mine is the fiat one

even more fun the jagst 2 and jagst 770 are the same
my car says 2 but the RDW (DMV) sais its the 770

also the rotary is official registered to the car
I didnt have to do that but I found it funny to do

no sorry that aint a cox
its a sachs

the rotary fiat will be at the dutchrotary stock the weekend

Nice, @robot797, the small rotary is very compact and I guess, about the same power as Fiat's water cooled 4 cylinder 600 cc engine, sort of like riding with the same amount of ponies in a Renault Dolphine.

Back in the early 1970's, Hawaii received Fiat imports. One was the Fiat 850, which was same body style as yours but with a slightly upsized engine. Then manufacturers were scrambling to meet the new US EPA emissions requirements with bolt on smog pump, air injection at the exhaust manifold, lean carb tuning and retarded ignition timing.

Those Fiats didn't do to well in Hawaii, because of their tendency to overheat in our year round warmer weather, especially summer. They'd probably did better in cooler climates.

My father in 1972, opted instead for an unsold 1970 Mazda 1200 sedan with automatic Borg-Warner transmission, even had a chrome medallion on the rear pointing that out. (Then, most of the imports from Japan were manual transmission.) It ran fine as a commuter, but its acceleration was on the slow side, buzzed at 65 MPH (107 km/h, the fastest speed on the short H-1 freeway).

the original engine was a 670cc engine (dont know the exact number)
with around 28 HP

the rotary is a 300cc 15HP

the new engine is a little slower
and has a max of 95km/h

the original engine could get up to 110km/h

and thanks for the info on the hawaii fiats
