partial restore on 82 RX7, against wife and wiser choices

[op2myst]

I have an 82 RX7 in bad shape yet I feel the need to keep it going. Car sat for over 10 years and has terrible interior and exterior. I was only bidder on ebay a few years ago so kind of bought as mistake for $500, I just started working on it a couple months ago and have now dumped more money into it than it is worth, got a looong list of repairs to make. It's running so journey has started. I'm in Dallas area, over 40 and reliving my teenage years when 1st gen was winning a lot of races! Looking forward to all the opinions, advice and help from this forum!
