Roanoke, VA anyone want to help

I have two questions. A car has come up for sale, that I would be interested in have someone look at for me, and also what is a good shop to get a PPI done at?

Unfortunately Roanoke is about 4+ hours from NoVa otherwise there would be 20 of us willing to jump in and help

I seem to recall someone from the Blacksburg area (< 30 minutes) frequenting this board but I can't remember his exact screen name.

Are you a PCA member? If so, you might try contacting one of the Officers from that region.

Good luck.

I am going to be in Richmond on Tuesday night, but I think it is about 3 hours away.

My buddy Mick has offered to help. I PM'd you his email. Here's what I just received form him:
"would be glad to take a look at the car, likely I am familiar with it.
couldnt find his e-mail address tho'..... Mick"

edit: Michael, just discovered that your PM mailbox is full...so here is Mick's email. Mick is quite active in PCA & 356 events.
Michelsen, Mick

Er... I could be wrong, but I believe that Roanoke may have had some serious flooding with 'Isabel'. I am in Annapolis, MD and we had 7' tidal surge.
Just a thought! as any cars in this location may have been subject to water damage?
Hope this is not the case

Roanoke didn't get hit as hard as Richmond or Virginia Beach area, but I could be wrong.

But, still a good thing to check.

I have family in Roanoke, no problems there with flooding or loss of power.
