I need to have a lx450 checked out in Fuquay-Varina. Anyone have a good trustworthy mechanic there i can get a pre purchase inspection completed?
 
I'd ask in the Olde North State Clubhouse forum - there's a bunch of 80/450 guys in that region and a dedicated thread to recommended mechanics.
HTH
 
Try the NC clubhouse here...

NC- Olde North State Cruisers

I'm down on the coast and only know some VW Porsche shops in Raleigh that I would recommend.


Depending on when you are looking to do this I may be in Raleigh this Friday and I would be happy to look at it if that helps.
Otherwise the clubhouse is going to be your best bet. Quick Search nets this

Looking at an FZJ80 in Raleigh/Durham

and this name

Dave Jordan Auto 622 Jackson Rd, Fuquay Varina, NC 27526 (919) 552-5600 ( A little south of raleigh) good. honest mechanic.
 
Man, i love the power of the internet. thanks guys. Coastalcat, i appreciate the offer, but i have family in raleigh, and my brother in law is going to check it out initially, then I'm going to have Dave Jordan Auto check out the mechanicals.

If anyone reading this is ever looking at one in Columbia, SC, Clarks Automotive on Sumter St is an honest mechanic here.
 
Good deal! Glad you have it figured out and happy to help!

If you get it post up the pics.. Good Luck!
 
I just spoke to Dave at Dave Jordan Auto. He's going to check the 470 out tomorrow. After a 10 minute conversation, I think this guy is gold. I'll update tomorrow after I get his report. He only works on Toyotas and something else, I think. 30+ years of experience. We'll see if he earns the $30 he charges for a PPI. (I was expecting $100 at least)
 
Cool, I'm in Irmo, too. I'll get one, whether it's this one or another. If you see something interesting around here, please feel free to PM me too. And, I'll definately take you up on the trails once I am in the family.
 
I'll chime in as well w/ regards to Dave Jordan; knowledgeable, open to providing a wealth of insight. I spoke w/ him back in '08 when I had a series 80 and he was very, very helpful. Wouldn't hesitate to use him...
 
Had inspection today. Dave Jordan know his stuff. Gave me complete confidence to make an offer without laying my eyes on the truck. Should be picking it up this weekend! As Jessie Spano would say, "I'm so excited, I'm so excited..."
well, you know the rest?
