I am in need of help with a Pre Purchase Inspection of a non-running 914-6. This is a car that I have been working to purchase for the last 3-4 months. It is a non-running car. On jack stands with carbs removed. It supposedly will run with the carbs reinstalled.
I would need help with pre inspection and possibly getting it running once purchased before shipping to me. If there are any recommendations of someone who may be both knowledgeable and willing I would appreciate it. Thank you. Jeff |

@jagalyn
Where is the car located? How through of a PPI are you looking for ? Most that do a PPI do a leak down and compression test. That may not be useful on a non runner. I am in the Riverside area and can do a PPI. But if the car can not be lifted to see the underside that limits the inspection. |

I contacted Allen prior to seeing your message. I am awaiting his response and will reach out if that does not work out. Thanks for your generosity. Jeff |

Several experts in the LA area. Keep us posted. Of course, we all want to see pics too. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
