If you really want to use an older parachute, but can't find a rigger to repack it, then why not become certified to repack chutes yourself, and repack your own? You will know what you are looking at and looking for after being trained, and can assume the liability for yourself. Of course, that means additional training and expense, but it may pay off in the long run.
