    Inspection for F5 roaster I want to buy in NC

    Can anyone recommend an car inspection service to go over a MkIII Cobra I am thinking about buying? It's a lot of money and I want to be sure everything is up and running (lights, electrical, mechanicals, etc.) before I sign on the dotted line. If you could provide name and contact for any inspection service you have dealt with, I would greatly appreciate it.

    You could possibly take the car to Whitby Motorcars in Greensboro. They build a ton of these and know the cars very well. They painted mine. Good people there!

    Agree on having Jeff do it - he painted my car. Shop is in Greensboro off exit 128 I-85S. Location of the car could be an issue if they will not let you drive or trailer it.

    With the build number, someone on here probably knows who built it or there may be a build thread. By chance is there any posts with the build number listed? That may get you some details of its construction.
