Would anyone care to state who made this rotary?

Looks like an early Mazda. Perhaps a 10A.
No front mounted distributor is kind of strange.

Its hard to see, but my guess is thats Lada rotary.
Its not a Mazda, the 10A has a wider rotorhousing.
And Mazda didnt put the starter down on that side.

Just my guess !!

Yea Martin it is a GM prototype for the 74 Vega.
Not sure what the size of the rotor housing/rotor is on this engine, all
we found was the picture and the caption about it being the prototype.
