rx3

I was given an rx3 stationwagon today ,its been to alaska and back a couple of times, and has been under cover for 10/12 years and not moved or started.parked because the starter quit. Any good ideas, advise or anything, I seldom turn down anything that is for " go get" Probably will extract the engine and running gear . How about installing it in an Opel GT?
