should i get this car?
ok dude said price was obo around like 999
roofs alittle dinged, interior seems fine, its an 88 rx7*course ^^*
hears what he says is wrong with the motor
the motor was leaking antifreeze internally...but still running stong at the same time. The day i noticed it was leaking i shut it down and drained all the antifreeze out so it wouldnt get damaged. Ive been told by my engine builder that the cause is a rotor housing corroded away in a small common spot and is now leaking. he said to fix it it would need a housing and maybe a few seals because i just had the engine totally rebuilt and has less than 9000 miles on it so all the rotors and apex seals ans such are still in like new condition.
am still kinda new to the whole rotary scene, and am wondering if i should just replace the whole engine or what?

He who smokes bitches
It's going to need a rebuild if it's leaking coolant internally, that means bad coolant seals. IDK what he means by corroded rotor housing, but if it needs a new housing thats going to be expensive. The rebuild itself would cost more than the car. I would keep looking.
