New member needs some advice about selling

Greetings fellow RX7 enthusiasts - I have a 1980 RX7 with just 5,854 miles on the clock and I've no idea how to go about selling it. I'm thinking it could be the lowest mileage first gen RX7 in the country but maybe not, I don't know. It's been in the garage here in California and not started for quite some time. So my question to the forum, is how would you go about selling this car? Very interested to hear what you all think, any advice would be much appreciated.

Have a reputable shop get it running, flush all the systems, and perform a compression test. When that is complete contact Bring A Trailer and see what kind of reserve price the would allow you to put on it, if it is acceptable I’d list it for auction with them.

I was thinking about that; it started a year ago without problems. However I was wondering if it was best to let a buyer "bring a trailer" and do all that for himself. A knowledgeable buyer might prefer to do that for himself so he knows it was brought back to life the right way.
