First-time RV-8 buyer; looking for pre-buy inspection! NM, AZ

I'm New Here
Hey RVnators, excited to be a part of the group. RV8 experts are hard to find. Know any experimental/RV-8 aircraft inspectors that could do a pre-buy in the (1) Clovis, NM or (2) Tucson, AZ?

Prebuy inspections are tough at the moment. Went through same thing when I purchased my 8 last year. Talk to owner, then mechanic who does condition inspections on RV's in the area, then a friend to go check it out. Little stuff to fix but no major surprises.
Try to reach out to any RV'rs in Tuscon/ Phoenix area?
Best of luck.

He did the pre-buy on mine, and flew it from Saint Louis to NJ.

RV8 builder and RV4 owner, he's also an A&P and flies for a major airline. Great guy, excellent mechanic. Knew everything to look for, and showed up prepared and ready to work.
