Hi all,

I just purchased this 86 syncro westy.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi...amp;rd=1,1

It's my first and I'm wondering what the right steps are to get it properly
inspected (to understand how much more I will be spending ;). Since it is a
NE vehicle and has outside rust, my main worry is rust. I'm assuming I need
to take it somewhere other than a standard repair shop to properly inspect
the inside body (e.g. look behin the fridge).

Its up by Albany, NY, but I live in Kansas City and plan to drive it back in
the next couple of weeks.

Thanks!
