Prebuy mechanic near Santa Rosa Cali?

Close to partnering on an older 206 out that way with a buddy of mine. If anyone knows of a good mechanic in that area I'd really appreciate it. Just trying to get all the ducks in a roll.

Give this guy a call, I did a prebuy in his shop some years back, seemed like a good guy, and he is close there.

Barry has maintained my 180 for a few years and he is very thorough. I've probably replaced a few more aging things a bit earlier than some other mechanics would have wanted, but then that style is probably what you want on a pre-buy.

I do not see why people do a pre-buy, which has no legal footing that I know of, instead of having a fresh annual done, which does carry some legal implications.

Hey trim. It's just out of fresh annual. Prebuy to make sure it wasn't pencil whipped and a good tool for negotiations and also know what $ you'll be spending in the near future. Cheaper and more convenient than traveling across the country to find surprises.
