87' 103.6k Miles N/A 13b motor FS

I"m selling my extra motor due to the fact that I'm out of the RX-7 game for a while.
I've got an Unknown motor up for sale, But I KNOW its internals are good. The motor could actually be fine, I dont know though.
I put oil in it, and it has compression etc. It's just sitting in my shed, all the holes are plugged up with rags, so no unwanted elements are in it.

I looked at the Apex seals, they look fine., the thing bounces 3 even pops on each rotor when spun.

It's iut of an auto car, the only thing i think taht couldve happened is a coolant seal went out, but, it hasnt rusted yet or anythign, so i dont know.

The Motor was NOT suppsoed to coem with my parts car, because the person was going to swap it, but it was too much of a project for them.

Come pick up my extra motor, and you can have a grab at other parts I have for 2nd gens free or for cheap.

This motor could be fine- I don't know for sure.

Throw me a reasonable offer, Like I said, all internals are probably great.

It's in shortblock.

I traded my RX-7 to the VW dealership towards an 05' GTI, and I got the car. SO expect to see my old 7 at an auction, it was pretty bitchin.

This is actually an Extra motor I had, iw as going to rebuild it. I looked thigns over and thought about what i woudl eb spoending on the 7 etc., and decided that since I'm graduating highschool this year, and going to work as an electrician, it'd be best to have a new car i didnt need to work on, plus it's got a nice stereo, working A/C, powersteering etc.

F1blue- I had the whole car painted, then I got into a small fender bender, and had to put a new bumper cover on, and fix the hood, so that was a huge loss of money for me, and the car was two different colors again. The A/C didnt work, the waterpump was going bad, and it was eating more gas than I wanted to pay for.

It was a bithcin car and I hope to see it around, It had a GXL LSD, Suede FD seats, SS brak lines, Slotted and cross drilled front rotors, hawk HPS front pads, corksport strut tower braces, S5 tails, T-II spoiler, fairly new tranny with new moutns, new diff mount, new used flywheel, Racingbeat Swaybars, Redline Goods Shift boot, SS clutch line and nw clutch Cylinders. Crappy CAAI, RB header for an Auto Tranny/verts. high flow cat, newish stock catback, H4 headlights, KYB AGX shocks, and Eibach springs, and little rust.
Nice interior
The bad- 193k miles motor, but, its still ran great.

I miss it, but I'm hoping it finds a good hope, i dont think they were sending it to the crusher, because they put one of those "As Is No Warranty" stickers on it like they have for used car lots.

I just couldnt have both cars, and I figures since I coudl afford the new one with my Job, it was a betetr option for this step of my life.

I hope to have a T-II or FD n my late 20's after the GTI is payed off for a few years.

I miss that car, It's been the best first car, and Highschool car.

I saw that engine on CraigsList and your e-mail... I thought it was just an excuse.

S4 or S5 engine?

T2 grey cloth seats, or black FD suede/cloth seats.

I would kinda prefer T2 simply because I wouldnt have to try to fabricate slider mounts.
