Default Anyone near Beverly Hills area willing to check out a car for me $

I've been scouring the country for a non-rusted out 67 GP Convertible and found a possible one -
https://www.beverlyhillscarclub.com/...le-c-17706.htm

Anyone nearby that is knowledgeable in body work / restoration, I would pay for your time to check this one out (not interested in the mechanical condition). Please send me PM if you or someone you know is willing to get under this car to check out.

Thank you!

This company not really known to have quality cars..... this one is showing signs it may not be the rust free car you desire and what we like to see or typically see with a true CA rust free car.

Contact this Pontiac club - surely some member in the Los Angeles area could help you:

I will give them a try. Agree it is originally an East Coast car and frame has rust. It's the body that I'm most concerned about. The photos the dealer sent seem to show the typical areas that rot through appear to be solid, but who knows if it's been previously repaired without onsite inspection. Thank you !

No joy - that webpage was to register for a show only and has physical mailing address only without any other way to contact...

No, CA. If it was Michigan it would be an easy trip for me.

Too far for me to go, but I would probably want hazardous duty pay if I went. Quite a few miles east of Beverly Hills and a trip through Korea Town and then China Town will get you into their neighborhood. They might have nice cars, but a possibility my car might not still be on the street after a tour of their facility. Here's a link to the street view map:
Beverly Hills Car Club

It is a Google map page so you can click and go down the street for a better view.

Hehe... that's East LA, not Beverly Hills.

Strange facility, like a fortress. The place itself looks very nice, very well kept up, no graffiti etc on the premises, kinda like locals know to leave the place alone, which is scary too. The whole block has high iron fences and nice shrubs around it.

This place sells nothing but absolute junk. Don't know who buys from them or who their type of buyer is.
