I will go take a look if you want. I am new to the area but know my way around an early car. I could not do comp. checks since my tools have not arrived with the movers. I am staying right down the street from the dealer.

email or PM the details and we can talk.

I can take a look at it as well. I'm okay on early cars- I know more about body & interior than motor.

Jamie, I'm in the area too and have a comp. tester and some tools. I'm just getting started so my tool collection is a bit limited and I haven't yet performed a comp. test. But if you are going to look at the car, let me know and you can borrow some stuff or I'll go with you.

John,

Do you have a garage to go with those tools? I would like to do a comp test if we can find some space off the lot. I don't want to start tearing into this car in front of the suits selling it.

PM or email me to coordinate. remove asteriks.

Dave you are welcome to come along. We can make it the official "Jamie meets people in Austin and PPI's a car for Chris" meeting.

thanks all guys for this great response

also could you please get the vin# for me?
the dealership keeps telling me that it is 9111111911 which doesn't make sense to me at least. and again i thank you all in advance for this great service you are doing for me

Its on PPI tomorrow starting at noon after picking up the car. Any Austinites are welcome to join in the fun. Donk has graciously offered his garage for the occasion.
