Default C5 guru needed

So my wife is finally letting me get back into the corvette world. We found a very reasonable 2001 in Vancouver. Im new to the C5 world (and truthfully a mediocre mechanic at best). I was wondering if anyone here new a good C5er in the area that could look at the car so I can appease the boss at home. My wife and I are super excited about the car and I just dont know of anyone in the area to take a looky loo for me to help seal the deal with her. Thanks in advance all.

Fort Lewis.




Nice area, but dang, too much rain!

Congrats on getting back into a Vette and good luck. If you see a pristine 2001/2002 QuickSilver Z running the streets on sunny days, it may be my buddy.

LOVE the area but the rain just pisses me off. And Ive seen that quicksilver Z more times than I care to admit to. Had to get my jaw looked at from it dropping too much.

In Vancouver, Wa. there is Tom Wong, who is a member of this forum and is THE Corvette guru. Look up TJWong. In Auburn is Corvettes of Auburn. They are also excellent.
