Question This car worth it??

Hey I was looking around for an RX-7 and I found a 1979 with a 1984 engine. I was going to offer him about $1400, is this a good deal or should I keep looking around. Here is the car

oh my god...all this time when searching ebay, i've been typing "rx7"....not rx-7

now there's twice the cars and parts for sale i didn't even know about!!!

learn something new every day...

wow, he's changed alot of parts on that car. too bad the body kit is ugly, cuz it does seem like a pretty good deal at $1400.

well the rims have been going for about $500.00 and up on E-bay and the carb kit that is on it RB I think sold it for like 750.
so if it will start and run than I think it would be worth buying

I'd say it worth more than that. JMO. I'd go up to few Ks. Momo steering wheel & clean interior, gound effects. This car was taken care of!!! DUDE.
