A new addition to the Rennen museum is the first Rennen Kusanagi, with the serial number #00001. First unveiled at the 1967 Montreal World Fair and making it’s European debut at Earl’s Court Auto Show in 1967, the second all-new model from Rennen was sleek, quick, light, yet manageable on the road unlike other mid-engined rivals of the era. Utilizing a 3-Liter V6 dervied from the Angeles, the Kusanagi produced a healthy 223 HP at 6200 RPM and revved freely to 6800 RPM. Mated to a 5-speed manual, this propelled the Kusanagi to 60 MPH in almost 6 seconds and onto a top speed of 150 MPH. The design features pop-up headlights hidden behind the front grille, wide separated rear taillights, an aggressive front and rear valence, and other small details that make the Kusanagi appear as a true sports machine.
