New owner of 87 Rx7

Hello All,

My father passed away recently and I'm contemplating keeping his 87 rx7. It is automatic. Was wondering if any one new any reputable repair shops in the Tampa FL area . He purchased a new transmission before he passed but never had the chance to replace it. Was also thinking of converting it to manual transmission. What's your take on my new endeavor?

Thank ,
Olga

I'd keep the car of course. The 5spd swap isn't that difficult once you have the parts to do so. If the automatic transmission bad and in need of replacement? You may want to drive it if its not and see how you like it with the automatic. I'd personally 5spd swap it but that's just me. Welcome to the club!
