Yep, to my knowledge Arctic Cat offered the olny rotary in 1973. They were very smooth running and had a lot of torque.

I always wanted to run a Wankle engine. There was a pickup out there with one if I recall.
What a collectors item!

Drove one once in something like a 197? Sabaru. That thing was the smoothest thing ever. It just wound and wound. Why did they not continue ??

bad mileage and gaskets you have to replace in the engine block.
