Just wanting someone to go over the car and look for anything that might be bad. Like hoses, bearings, things like that.

I can do stuff like swapping parts and what not, but i'm not a good auto trouble shooter right now, thou i'm getting better. :lala:

Nick, I just moved to the area in June and I've met some good people from the North Texas ThirdGen Association (nttga.com) and LastGen.com

I had 3 guys from LG at my house Saturday changing my fuel pump with me.

Start networking and see what you can find!
