Hi, I want to buy a GT in Chetek, Wisconsin (90 minutes from Minneapolis, MN). Looking for referrals on getting an inspection done on the potential car.

Rich Brooks of the GT Guys is in Rockwood MI (southern edge of Detroit) about a 9.5-hr drive from Chetek, WI (630 mi).

I dunno if they do PPIs but Desneux Motorsports might also, and they're about an 8.5-hr drive / 550 mi from Chetek.

+1. Rich is the guy! He may already know the car, so at a minimum, worth the phone call.

On these cars you MUST get a PPI from a tech with experience in GTs. If you are not under a short deadline, take the time to do it right, and take it to The GT Guy or someone else with that experience.

Also, ask the owner for the maintenance records, examine them carefully, and see who he used for service.

Who performed prior service is key...

Are you looking to buy a new GT or 05/06?

Heritage in that era was '06 only, just FYI. You may already know that, but I wasn't sure and decided to be 'helpful' 😬(y)
