'81 RX7 for $150, worth it?
Good afternoon, I have always liked RX7s and have the chance to buy a major project...

Basically the only good thing about the car is there's no rust, a straight body and cool wheels are included.
Otherwise it's missing a radiator, broken ignition, plus ??? else.
Most everything else looks to be there.
No title. Interior is fairly thrashed but not horrible.
I still see some potential by getting a bonded title and slowly restoring it..

What do you all think? Go for it or wait for a better RX?

Thanks for reading & responding!

Here she is... Check out the bullet hole in windshield

You could probably part it out for more than that.

Definitely worth it, as mentioned just parting it out would get your money back

You stole that sucker. Good job. There’s a few cheapos floating around here in Phoenix, but nowhere near $100. Congrats!

$100 is a steal. You could part it out and make money on the deal!
Or build an awesome race car on the cheap. Lemons racer?
