I'm sure all you need to know can be found here. An FD for free; what luck.

Well considering he'll have to get a motor and pay someone R&R it won't exactly be free ;p

True, but a free FD body is still something to be proud of.

1) Read the FAQ thread. It's a sticky in this forum. Pay attention to discussions of rebuilding. Also download the factory service manual.
2) Run a search for threads started by Bobfish. He's done not one, but TWO huge documentations of an engine rebuild in his own one-car garage.
3) Buy a rotary engine rebuild video/dvd. For $30 you will get a really good understanding of how to do it, plus all the details.

Getting the car's half the battle! Now the rebuild, let's just say...Start Saving some cash! And once finished with the build...Save some more just in case! Good Luck! The 95 is the rarest of the FD's...Bastard!! J/K.
