12A with low km at Pick 'n Pull Calgary

I was at Pick 'n Pull on Thursday (July 31st) and noticed a 1984 chocolate brown RX7 GS (ie: rear drum brakes) and brown interior. A closer look revealed an odometer reading of 119,000 kms. The like-new cloth seats and almost non-existent pedal wear would indicate that this mileage is likely accurate. The body had some rust but not too bad, and the rear panels are dented. The car at that time was almost completely intact.

I'm guessing this car was not driven regularly and may have been stored for extended periods. Not good, but engine wear is probably minimal and any low compression reading would likely be due to carbon lock.

P 'n P sells these engines for around $130 including core charge. Pulling the engine is your responsibility. I'd bring a battery pack, compression tester and oil squirt can before buying.
