Question What to do?

With all the rules for posting messages, I sure hope I don't screw this up. I'm not very bright. But I have had this 85 rx7 for several years now and I have to say it is a lot of fun to drive. It makes me feel young again. At my age that is no small thing. But it has just developed a rather serious mechanical problem and I have to decide if I want to: 1) sell it, 2) fix the one problem, 3) or restore it. I love the car and am not anxious to be rid of it. I really love old cars and have had a few over the years and have always thought it would be fun to restore one someday. I never thought it would be a rotary though. Well I'm hoping this club will help me get some answers about my three options.

Thanks for the welcome. I am in fact inclined to hang onto the car. I'm going to check out the tech section for newcomers. While I have some mechanical ability, I know very little about these rotary engines.
