Hi guys,

anyone in the area of birmington alabama that wouldnt mid helping me by looking at a car for me? I would be happy to pay for your time.

Thanks
Dave

 

What year are you looking at? Ed McComas is in that area, maybe he will see this. You might put Birmingham in the title to spark so interest.

 

thanks for the advice , i sent you a pm and edited the title

 

After getting sold down the river on the last car I bought I made a list of things to check for. I know it's not complete, but it will start you off in the right direction.
Hope this helps.
George
