The boss is shopping, gonna pull the trigger in the next 2 weeks. The car seems in good shape but would like to have some trustworthy eyes on the thing before I tell him to run down there.

I'm happy to go do a look/see. However, I'd recommend that he have someone like A & P Specialties, Marque Motors or Motor Sports International do a PPI. I have had great experiences with all (MSI did a PPI on my 914 6 conversion for the new buyer in england. I think it ran him about $100.00.) Who knows, maybe the car has a service history at one of the shops anyway.
If the current owner is hesitant to accommodate delivery & pick up at one of these shops to facilitate a PPI, I'd be a little worried. FYI - MSI found that I had a ball joint that looked bad, so I replaced it while there. Seemed the prudent thing to do since the car was in such good shape and going to england. I have Allen at A & P do all the work that I can't (or don't want to ) do myself. He is great and I highly recommend him. |

I second A&P. Allen is a good guy and very knowledgeable. Used to be a factory mechanic when Gateway Porsche was still arround, went out on his own after.
