Complete Restore?

I was wondering if I should go for a complete restore on my 1985 Mazda RX7 GS? Would it be worth it and how much would it cost?

kind of a rough question to answer without pics so people can see what can be salvaged what cant etc etc. Each build / restore is going to cost a different amount depending on weather you do the work or you pay for all the work to be done, do you use pulled parts or new parts? going for factory restore or custom parts? all these questions need to be answered so to tell you bluntly nobody here knows how much your restore will cost unless you break down to us what you need replaced and how you go about replacing it. I can tell you with some research you can find the answer yourself. I have only been a member for a few days but have already done so much on my own. Oil change, radiator flush, brake fluid bleed, power steering change, fuel filter, etc etc. There is alot to learn on this site and I mean ALOT. Get out there hit the forums and the searches if you find an acronym like "GZ LIM" google it (ps it means Ground Zero Lower Intake Manifold). Google + RX7club.com = the world muahahahahaha

How much time and money do you have? In what condition is the car currently? Restoring a car - any car - takes twice as long and three times as much money as you think it will.
