Default Dads Car

I am reletively new to this forum. I have posted up about getting my dads 73 coupe. Well, it came a couple weeks ago and it is a lot rougher than I thought. I am looking for someone in the Sacramento, CA area that could possibly come look at it and see if it can be saved. It was my dads car and after he passed away in 1994 it has been garaged in Michigan and driven very little,10k miles in 14 years. I would like to resore it because it was his but I need to know how realistic it is. If you know of anyone in my area please pm me so I can contact them. Thank you,
Bubs

Welcome to the forum! Hopefully his car can be salvaged, and would be a great project for you. I'm sure it would make him happy to know you are keeping the tradition alive.

If you are looking for help in the state, be sure to check out the NorCal section
