Hello RON !I live in Portland but I may not be the person you are needing to check out a Vette.As far as visually checking out the exterior and interior and general condition I could most likely handle that but not in the mechanical area.You can email me at" [felix39@comcast.net]" with more information if you don't hear from someone more qualified to fill your need.Or you could just respond here on the forum by sending me a PM. I have been a vette owner for 5 years and I have a 2001 C5 A4 convertible white in color

depends on where it is around portland, also would need access to a lift somewhere if you want to do the basic inspection and manifold vacuum test

plan b could be one of two things

1. wongs performance in vancouver, wa, big time local corvette c5/c6/c7 specialty shop

2. carr chevrolet as they do pre purchase inspections
