Inspection of 442 in St. Louis, MO
Can anyone recommend a trusted car inspection company in St. Louis for inspection of a 1970 442?
From my Google search I keep running across this company https://testdrivetech.com/product/cl...r-inspections/
Has anyone used this service or is there a different inspection service that you've used for cars in St. Louis, MO and were satisfied with?
Thanks for your help in advance!

My suggestion is to contact Steve Minore if you're interested in authenticity and the overall condition and performance of your 442. Steve has a national reputation and will travel anywhere in the United States. Steve is based in the Northeast section of the United States.
If you need Steve's contact information, please send a private message.
Good Luck!

I am aware of Hemming's as well as the exposure one undertakes when providing the service.
I am not being argumentative. Please do not take my response as being anything other than curious.
Are you confident that a Hemming's representative knows 442's as well as Steve Minore?
Thanks- Harry

I do know that credentials go a long way with me.
My advice is to hire on reputation and credentials.

What do you want the review to entail? If you just want to know the overall condition of the car & its mechanicals I'm sure the company you linked to is fine. If you want someone to confirm date codes, casting #'s, matching numbers and correctness you have to find a 442 specialist.

It's not a "W" car, or anything that will require the most thorough or expensive inspection in the world. It appears to be a good driver candidate, I'm 1500 miles away and I'm just interested in making sure that there isn't a lot of extra work that will be involved other than what I can readily see needs attention in the pictures.
Thanks to everyone for helping me! I appreciate everyone's advice.
