rusty car with good engine good car no engine

ok, I have a 1980 rx7 with a good everything except body. Little rusty. I have found a 1982 with a good body and no drivetrain and the ac has been removed.

Now, I just spent a 160.00 to get the a/c and checked and charged changed to R134a in my 1980. So, what I was planning is taking drivetrain cooling system and a/c and putting it in the 1982 car.

Im pretty sure that it will go with no problem. but someone might foresee a problem that I dont know about.

Thanks
Sean

The shifter is in a different place on the S2 and 3 cars. If you want to use the 80 tranny, you will have to swap the shift turret.
