1987 Rx7 engine / restore

Hi ,
ive got a 1987 rx7 .
I need an engine and an installer.
i live in San Antonio Texas.
My wife would like it gone .
Im still dreaming of driving it again or passing it down to my son.
Bought it brand new in 1988.
its been sitting a few years while lifes got in the way of toys.
Dont know where to begin.
maybe a restoration place in SA or close by.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Tony G

Is the engine just the main thing you want done now? or do you want to dump $$$$ into it to bring it to some level of restoration? Got to have a plan...the wife probably doesn't want any money spent on it either.?.?.

I know this thread is old but these guys might still be around??

There is a local guy in SA you can track down through the 'San Antonio Rotary Enthusiasts' Facebook page but I cannot speak to his work.

If you want a reliable shop with credibility, you will be towing it to Rotary Performance in Garland.
