Posted in January of 2012: I have had my Cosworth #1386 (new) since 76 and it has gone nowhere in
popularity or value. I shoulda' bought that Corvette C‐3 convertible for another $500 at the time. I
understand everyone's enthusiasm but I just don't share that enthusiasm anymore because no one is
ever going to understand the uniqueness of this car. They resell for pennies on the dollar, so to speak
and i want to enjoy this car and see people trun their heads when passing by. That doesn't happen. So
after some thought, mine is on the block and I dread what I may have to give it away for. If I get it sold, I
am going to buy that C‐3 convertible if I can find one respectfully priced which is anywhere from 3 to 5
times its sticker. The Cosworth, who the hells knows where it is going to go but I am done waiting after
35 years. Over that time, have replaced tires twice (latest is a set of Michelins), batteries, water pump,
fuel sender, fuel pump, hood insulation pad, muffler and > rebuilt the gas tank.

Posted on Yahoo! in December of 2011: After buying new in New Jersey, driving for 35,000 miles the
1rst year then maxing out at current 44,000 miles, up for sale is #1386, '75 Cosworth, white vinyl,
AM?FM stereo, swing out windows, RW defroster. No rust, dents. Garaged from new, clean, taken care
of but never restored. New hood insulation, muffler reproduction with the two exhaust tubes, water
pump, in‐tank fuel pump and repaired and clean gas tank. Taking offers. Engine compartment clean and
no oil leaks. Lost interest since I bought my '06 Vette roadster 2 yrs ago. Just not going to wait any
longer until auto buffs figure this car out. 3 passed thru Mecum this year for 6, 8 & 10,000. Maybe I
shoulda spent another $500 and bought the '75 Vette! Ray De Martini #1386

As of November of 2004, this car was still owned by Ray DeMartini. hamman@comcast.net He joined
the CVOA in 97.

Unknown Date. I was driving home with the family after getting some ice cream in Burlington, New Jersey. Burlington is
a town on the Delaware River, connecting New Jersey and Pennsylvania. My daughter noticed a
Cosworth Vega abounded in a parking lot, behind a bar. We stopped and as we thought it was rusting
with engine parts inside of the interior Being a brave soul, I pulled up to it and looked inside. I checked
the dash number it was 1394, a 1975 Cosworth with a white interior, rusting. Bob Smith
