Looking for help in Hawaii

[iam326]

Hey everyone, currently looking at a HZJ80 in the Hawaii Kai neighborhood of Oahu. I really dont want to risk buying a basket case, so if there is anyone that can either recommend a reputable shop that the seller can take it to for a presale inspection, or if someone that kinda knows diesels to go take a look at it for me? I would pay you for your time. LMK.

I did end up getting it. Really nice truck, most likely from northern Japan as there some rust and the GPS home location on the aftermarket head unit that was installed. Rust basically stops where I live so no harm there. I would have hated to have had someone try to talk me out of the purchase, super fun vehicle so far and after an inspection from Fit Garage with a clean bill of health I’ve been DDing it
