Lebowski Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Chula Vista is just south of San Diego. Is there a roster of club members you could look through? Good luck.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyler Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 if this is an expensive car use a professional. they advertise in hemmings. just be sure that you tell the guy any specific areas you want examined. a freind had a 65 mustang looked at by a service and after he bought the car it was discovered it had such extensive frame rot underneath that the car was unsafe to drive and of course not worth what he paid for it. the guy never examined under the car , and since it was a convertible that was really important to look there. anyone can look at a car and say it is nice. a proper exam is something else. capt den Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dick77 Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 How do I find a professional? I guess you also need to assume that who ever checks it for you does not try to buy it for there self. Thanks for the information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyler Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 check with restoration shops in the area, car clubs, maybe even your insurance company as they have people doing all kinds of estimates. auto transporters know others in this hobby, and usually someone who does an estimate for you is not interested in buying the car. what kind of car are you looking at anyway? capt den Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyler Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 national auto inspection services. this took me all of 10 minutes to find online. i put in 'auto examination classic car 'on google. lets face it, if you can't find someone to look at this car then you will either get lucky if you buy it and it is a good car or you will lose alot of money buying a junker, or maybe you shouldn't buy it at all if you can't take 10 minutes to find an inspection service. there are others, you pick one. capt den Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dick77 Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Sorry I am new at this and I did not know there was such a thing as a inspection service available so I thought I would ask a question of the people that would know the answer. If I offended you by asking then I am truly sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Dick77 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 The add was in craigslist. It is supposed to be a 1925 Maxwell. Asking price is $ 8999.00. Phone number on add is 619-422-3725. One guy said it looked like a mixture of cars. There is a picture of it at Home - Dick and Nancy Eddinger's Stuff . When I talked to them they said they would let it go a lot cheaper.

Guest Dick77 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Looks like a few things are the same and then there are others. Especially the radiator grill totally different. Then the wheels look like they might be model a wheels. That is a beauty you have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
