Hi Guys,

New to the forum, and was looking for help in finding somone to do an inspection on a GT in Las Vegas. I have used Rich of the " Gt Guy in Michigan, and he did a super job. Was hoping for someone closer or in LV who can also help me out.
Thanks

Danny I have customers in Las Vegas that could do a visual and then if something more comprehensive I would have to fly in.

Takes care

Danny - if you can get either Kendall (nota4re) or Shadowman to look at the car for you, consider yourself very fortunate. Either can make sure you are buying the right car.

Bentjag...I recently did an inspection on a black no stripe 05 in Vegas. If this is the car, BEWARE. If so, feel free to private message me.

I spoke to Danny. This is not a black car. By all accounts, it sounds like this is a good find with low miles. We'll make arrangements to go check it out within the next few days.

Well, Ryan and I flew out to Vegas on Wednesday to inspect this car. All I can say is, "wow", this was really quite a find! A 900 mile, FLAWLESS, white/blue, 4-option VIRGIN. Virgin meaning both good and bad - the axle bolts have not been addressed (bad) but the car has never even had the pans touched (good)! Seriously, this was a 1-owner, pampered car and try as we might, we couldn't find ANY flaws. So, I phoned Danny and told him what we found and promised to send him pictures and an inspection report when we got home. Danny called me Friday and asked when we could pick it up and I told him that we had some flexibility in the coming weeks and so when he worked out the transaction details, we could be ready. Transaction details??? Danny told me the money had changed hands and that the title was now in his name!!! Holy cow, batman! So, Ryan and I headed out again to Vegas this morning at the dark hour of 4:30am.... this time with Cool Tech trailer in tow. We were back home by 1:30PM... with Ryan driving both 4.5 hour legs.

Here's a couple of pics of loading her up this morning (the seller wasn't quite convinced that those wide hips would fit) :

Yes, at the end of the day, I think it was a good buy. Interestingly, Hemmings is the only place he chose to advertise the car. It was just so refreshing to see such an immaculate car. I have to really respect the owner for that. He also managed to keep all of the stickers on the car, rotation numbers, etc. Another chance to meet a very cool (former owner) as well as to work with a very cool new owner (Danny)!!
