Default c2 inspection needed

Need help finding someone to check out a 65 vette in the Huntsville area of Alabama, I did use a company I found on the web to check another car but all they did was send the same pictures I had found on my own.If anyone knows of a good company or any member that knows what they are looking at I would appreciate it. I have contacted one of the NCRS clubs in the area but have not had any luck there as of yet thanks in advance.

If the '65 is a high end corvette, I would hire provette67 from the Cleveland area. Endorsed by JohnZ. If not, his transportation costs plus inspection fee may not be worth it. Good luck.

As it happens I was supposed to be in Montgomery,Al this weekend. That would have made this easier. But ended up in a surgery room on Tuesday. So I am laid up for a week or so.

If your not in a rush I'd wait for Pancho provided his recovery isn't to long? He knows these cars Inside and out! Highly recommended!

Hey Pancho

Hopefully you jumped up on a surgery wait list! Finally getting your knee fixed?
