Advice Needed
hello everyone i am very new to the forums just registered now and help needed with advice on a local mazda rx7 for sale.
i am looking at and 1993 mazda rx7 twin turbo that does NOT have an engine. i dont know how many miles it has on the car and i was really wondering what everyone thought the price would be at this car
just by looking at it i now it needs alot of repairs
missing door handles
outside rust
interior was decent but very dusty
leather seats were cracked
the owner was asking 5k. also the owner is supposed to contact me and what type of questions do you think i should ask the ownder.
also thx in advance and any comments would be appreciated

Sounds like a rip off to me!
5k for a rolling shell, tell the guy to keep dreaming and offer him 1.5-2k at the MOST.
Get as much info as you can on the car, make sure you get the mileage as an old dog will cost you much more than a good condition running one. You dont know what else may be missing.
Ask yourself, what else is missing or broken, how much rust is there? try and calculate how much it will cost to put on the road and add another half and you should be close. I should know I just rebuilt a complete FD from ground up!

there is no telling what could be wrong with it. a test drive makes a world of difference. personally, take someone with you from this forum that knows these cars inside and out. unless you are willing to take a gamble, i would do as much research as you can.
