Need help figuring out how to start a 1983 RX7 GSL

I know, insert the key and turn it until the engine starts
Backstory: I just picked up the car to be a 2nd 24 Hrs of Lemons car to add to our team the existing car is a 81 RX7.
2 owner prior started gutting the car and has removed most of the wiring harness by cutting it out. We would like to know if the engine will run to help decide if this is going to be a parts car or a new running member of our team. Our current RX7 has a non emissions carb so we do not have anything to compare it to. We are hoping someone will be able to tell us what we existing emissions items can be removed and maybe a basic wiring diagram to get this running for a test. If it runs we will purchase the same carb we have in our existing car.
The photo is the 83 and we have removed the smog pump and AC compressor. We found the coils in the car and have a radiator
