New to me RX-7

Well since its my birthday I got me a car! I sold my corolla and picked up this gem for only 600 bux. So i basicly paid 100 for it. AND YES ITS MANUAL! lol finally after all these years a manual. It will need new brakes and exhaust but besides that ac and heat works! 5 gear grinds though... not bad but ya... lol

1990 N/A GXL RX7 with LSD

Looks like dropping in an LS1 would make this car front mid-engine? If so, that would be bada$$
