Found out my old breaker box was a time bomb

I was looking into adding a new outlet in my garage and stumbled on a 2017 NEC code article. Learned that my Zinsco panel was actually recalled for fire risks. 30 bucks for a home inspector to confirm it. Anybody else find scary stuff hiding in their walls?

So did the inspector flag anything else or just the panel...

Keep it short and say they flagged the missing bonding jumper too.

Number 47 needs a main panel upgrade and a dryer vent cleaning.
