Pre-purchase inspection Portland OR

[sdrubicon]

Hi Everyone,
I'm in the process of purchasing a '66 Thunderbird that's located in the Portland OR/Vancouver WA area and I'm looking for a reference to someone who I can hire to perform a pre-purchase inspection. I'm primarily concerned with mechanicals as I want a driver- not a garage decoration. Would any of you have a reputable shop and/or someone that you would recommend? Preferably someone who knows these Birds and what to look for.
Thank you in advance!
Bill

The Bird Nest is located in West Linn, a suburb of Portland. I'm not sure if they do service work on cars or inspections but they might be able to help. It would be worth giving Matt or one of his helpers a call. See link to them and other 'Bird parts vendors that help support our Forum and website here:
