WI Hopeful FD3S buyer

Hey,

I'm a hopeful buyer for a Mazda '93 RX-7.

Dont really know much about the mechanics of rotaries but I understand the Pro's and Con's to owning one entirely.

None the less, I'm currently looking at a RX-7 whos seen better days. It seems like it has gotten proper attention to the engine but at the moment it is not running, and there are several major cosmetic issues including cracked right C-West headlight cover and inner most lens (the bigger one, if anyone knows a place to get replacements for these, please lemme know.), cracked windshield, brutalized front bumper and major paint chipping, peeling, fading.

From what I have seen from receipts, it has had two rebuilds, one from first owner and one from current owner. Also, the current owner said he has had a new engine block installed as well, it is also the 13b, nothing new. He says the problem is massive boost loss and said he has thrown thousands of dollars at the problem. Im suspecting from recent history, he hasnt paid much attention to the intercooler hoses. Possibly a laceration or split causing massive boost loss. Ill follow up once I get the hood popped. Luckily its a local buy, and is within 5 minutes from home. Lemme know what you guys think and throw a price point at me. Ill try to throw down some pics too.
