New to the RX7 World and Hoping to Learn

I just took a 1983 RX7 GL on trade and by joining the club am hoping to learn about this very unique car. I received this car from the original owner and it only has 20K miles on it and has never seen a snowflake. It runs great, everything seems to work, and doesn't have any visible rust. Not sure if I should keep it, drive it, store it, or sell it, or even what it is worth. So hoping the folks on this forum can advise me. Appreciate any guidance... Jerry

If it really has only 20k miles and it isn't beat up, then that's what we call an Original Survivor car and it will be worth a small fortune one day as long as it doesn't accumulate more than 30,000 miles and is never repainted or had any major pieces replaced or rebuilt. It's a keeper car for sure but not a daily driver or even a weekend driver if it's to hold its role as a true "reference model" of the way the cars originally appeared straight off the docks when shipped to the USA for sale.

Nice find! Welcome aboard, Jerry!
