Default Pre-buy RV-6 assistance needed

I'm going with a friend next week who is interested in buying an RV-6. This will be our initial look at the airplane. We could use someone to do a pre-buy or at the very least another set of eyes from someone very familiar with the -6 before moving forward. The airplane is in Cloverdale, CA. Need recommendation for someone who can help. Many thanks.
Geoff

Default Pre-buy

I used Rex Daniels (r3xdan@gmail.com) for my RV-7 pre-buy. He's great; really knows RVs. Rex lives near Santa Rosa and will fly his RV8 to wherever needed.

Default 6 pre-buy recommendation

I'd like to second the recommendation for Rex Daniels...has has many pre-buy inspections under his belt and is for the benefit of buyers, more than a little, shall I say, anal about the details...I am however a little biased in that I am his hangar neighbor and have worked with him on several projects. There is no one better. Try him at 530-945-9000.
