Any members in Yuba City?

I'm looking for someone who'd be willing to quickly checkout a used car that I'm interested in, as I'm in San Jose. It's an 81 Trans Am. Let me know if you could possibly help me out.

Thanks

Nice! Thanks Pete. Do you /your vendors sell a package that includes everything I need for the rear bar upgrade? Assume I'd need to realign it after again too?
