Default Can someone from the Los Angeles, Ca area take a look at a car for me?

Hello. I found a crx on autotrader I want to see more pictures and get more info from. I've tried calling a few times, no answer, left a message, no response. This weekend I'll be doing a swap and I won't have service at the shop, so I won't be able to call nor get calls.

I want to know what's wrong body wise/interior wise, will it drive 3000miles the way it sits and how much will he take off if I don't want the rims.

The ad

I will pay ($20 paypalled) for your time if you can send me a good amount of pictures and a good description to my email. I want to see under the hood, interior, underneath the car, the rear hatch open, tons of the outside with all the defects up close if needed (like rust). The main factor is rust. I don't want any unibody rust, I'll deal with some rust on the removeable panels.

Before you get your panties in a bunch about the no tech:

EL Vap133 (8:17 AM 3/23/2007): Even though it does not belong there, I can understand the situation so go ahead. Just post on there that I approved it.

Sometimes asking first gets you permission .

Oh and whoever gets me the pics, and I do buy it, when I go down that person gets a 12 of any canadian beer he chooses.

EDIT: It has been pointed out to my canadian *** that LA means Los Angeles, and Louisiana. I mean Los Angeles.

I do. I have faith that you can find a car for me. But why not look at that one while I'm at it? It is everything I want, only problem is it's 3000 miles away and I don't know anyone local to it! I need to hurry up the process as much as I can cause I don't have faith in my civic. The driveshafts are starting to hit the forks when I take off, bushings are really crapping out on me and I would rather replace the rusty POS then fix it .

If I can't find anyone and it gets sold, it's no skin off my back cause I know you got your eyes on the prowl. I just check autotrader daily and try and spot good cars. Thing is they don't last long if they are in ok condition in my price range.

Sweet thanks. Looks like the swap I had to do ended early. I guess staying up for 28 hours straight work helped. Pulled a GSR and put a D16Z6 into an EG Si. It was a bring back to stock for the insurance company after a stolen recovery. I made more money to help pay to bring up the crx I find.

Haven't gotten an email nor a call back in my messages. I'm assuming it's a busy weekend for everyone.
