CA Hi I'm new to this club, my name is Chickiepye.

Hello everyone. I have recently acquired a 1981 RX7 that runs like a bat out of hell, however it is missing a muffler, the ignition switch and the battery. I put a temporary battery in it and with no effort and a flick of a switch the thing revved right to life. I am not really sure if it is something I want to keep and fix up, is it worth it to put the investment into and get some sort of return out of it? It is very rough on the interior as well.

What are you asking?

Did you buy the car to resell or to drive?

Well, I am looking for advise really, I traded a paintball gun for it so i have no idea what it is worth....I have heard the motors work well in dune buggies....I just don't know if it is worth it to keep and restore or if i should make it a parts car or if it worth selling.....I have no idea, driving it for me would be kinda funny, i am a good sized woman and its a tight fit.
