I own a 77 Repu and there are some minor differences including a 4 inch longer cab, 5 spd as mentioned, normal direction thread on the wheel lugs (The 74-76 trucks had reverse wheel threads on the driver side). Im sure there are more differences. I Need to get some rust fixed then I want to take it to Mike at angel motorsports ( he has a sick repu).
People gotta stop making videos of repus. Cause every time someone sees ones they want one and there is not alot left. Iv been on the hunt for 5 years...
I'm looking for one right now my uncle has owned one for like 20 years it's a 74 that now makes about 600 to the wheel but the body is factory as well as the interior he has and original motor str8 out of it and transmission my profile picture is the engine bay
Did you have a chance to drive one Zack? I'd love to know how it drives, both as a Rotary Powered vehicle and as a pickup truck. I'm a Rotary fan, but even I can't see why this would've been a good idea. I'm already going to assume this thing has zero low end torque, which is paramount to a pickup.
My brother had one no idea what year it was it was fast as hell I was like 6 or 7 y. o he and anybody I could ask about it is dead ☹️ my guess is 75/76 I also know the battery was on the passenger side under the bed black interior and wood grain bezel
one of my dream cars, love learning new facts about em. thanks for another w video man👍

I own a 1974 repu
I only know about this truck because of the episode of road kill where they made it a mid engine rat rod
I have never seen one but I love them all the same. Great vid btw.
I owned 2 1974's , fun trucks but lousy paint and they were prone to rust. I ran a Racing beat intake, Holley carb and exhaust, was pretty quick.
I love this channel, keep up the great work

Yes, there is a full review on my channel as well as lots of other rotary reviews!
To think I had rotary swap a mazda ute to get this . Although these are hard to find
Not a fan of that farting truck screen wipe being used haha
Dude what kind of wheels are on that truck? Those are sick!
Mangels

I purchased a hot wheels version of this car, so now I'm here looking at how it looks in real life 😂

There’s a repu for sale in my area for $5,000 it’s been up for sale for a while. Doesn’t run
where?
I'm pretty sure my grandpa had one
I never knew about it
ford never had ownership, they had a small share.
