buying rx7 body good engine question?

shorty asked:


Ok i know this guy that has a 1993 rx7 and has a bunch of court fines so he is selling it. I've seen the car, it has 80,000 original miles, its an auto. with nice interior and a few normal dings on the body. it DOES have a salvage title. The guy said the engine needs new seals (apex seals) and it should be good to go. he said when he wrecked it after the seals went it did start and load and hasnt been started since (a few years). he is wanting $5,500 for it as is. I am thinking about getting it and putting it in a storage garage and working on it when i have some extra cash or having it worked on. U guys think its a good deal?
Its the 13b twin turbo motor. My father used to have a 91 rx7 and thats when rx7's became my dream car. I'm pretty posative my uncle rebuild my dads motor and knows rotary motors inside and out and would be glad to help/teach me cuz i'm very interested. I'm going to get more details on it, call insurance company and find stuff out then make a decision. thanks guys
