Question What To Do Dilemma

I picked up a 1990 RX7 Turbo II with a trashed motor. I plan to use the Fuel Inj & turbo to upgrade my sand rail.

My dilemma is what to do with the rest of the car. It has a clear titleand is 100% complete. No body dammage, except for a few spots where the paint has pealed off. Interior is great.

Should I try to sell the complete body together? Or part out the car?

I hate to part out a complete car, but I'm looking for how to get the best money from it. I'm not sure what it's worth to part out. You don't see much for sale on eBay or craigslist.

If you have an opinion, or need parts let me know.

Thanks

sell the whole thing... less work and there are always people looking for a great shell (especially guys that like to do swaps). $1k is about right, IMO.

Yeah, you shouldn't part out a T2 with a good body + interior and a clear title. Someone will buy it. Especially since the drivetrain is intact except the engine.

Glad their is interest

I have some interest in the complete car. I would have felt really bad to part this one out.

imho, it is best to sell that car as a shell. easier, faster, and no parts to haul to the dump.
