I am taking it to a shop in San Jose (Flintworks). Good Yelp ratings, so hopefully nothing major turns up in the PPI
I had looked at a 996 in San Luis Obispo 2 days earlier that looked to have been driven hard and put away wet, and the seller was asking $16.5K. You could not get that car to the level of this one for $1K. The car in San Luis Obispo had the IMS bearing changed (whereas the gold one has the original bearing), however I am not too concerned about the double-row in the 99. If the engine and transmission ever need to come out, I can address it then...

Flintworks is a good shop - or it was - I believe it was sold a couple years ago?
Good luck with the PPI. Make sure you get the proper cam deviation numbers!
Agreed, it's a nice color and looks clean!
