I’m a little stuck trying to figure out what next on my ‘73 Q code ‘vert, with some things still undone, and a majority of what I expect is needed being beyond my personal capabilities (welding, paint, etc). Plus there are things I’m sure I’m not even considering for the long term — after all the car starts, runs and drives giving me great joy, and sometimes that’s enough.
With all that said, I see the Mustang Shop San Diego does a 180 point inspection to tell ya just what needs fixing. Does anyone have experience with them? It would be a two hour tow so I can’t take it lightly. While I’ve found (mostly) great mechanics for different parts of restoration locally, beyond this forum I’ve not found any Mustang experts I can turn to.
Good idea or not? Given it will involve a two hour tow to and back, I know it won’t be cheap. What’s a good range you’d expect for the 180 point inspection price?
Or do you think I should continue to wing my way through locally with each item as I see them? Am I just suffering resto-fatigue?
