Default Anyone from the Orlando area?

I'm interested in a car for sale and wondered if there might be somebody in the Orlando area who might be available to go take a look at it. The car in Kissimmee.

Help a brother out?

Without giving too much away you might want to post what kind of car it is. C1s and C2s are vastly different and folks have different levels of knowledge about them...

That's good; the guys I would trust to do it are pros and there'll be a charge for the service.
If you post pictures of it here you'll get a plethora of advice; some good; some really good and some bogus.

However, there is no substitute for eyeballs on the car !

Either you bought it, or you are too late.

Just saw it is yours. Congrats.

Definitely pay someone to go check it out, especially potential rust on bird cage and usual frame areas since it spent its life in Florida.

Forum rules require posting pictures of all new old acquisitions.

I'm sure I read that somewhere.
