Aint this a bitch! We've or I should say mikes known them 2-3 yrs, I moved down here a little over a yr. ago,and know them that long ! We've got their address and ph#'s,and have done work for them before. This kid was convinced we were screwing him but mike had a contract with him to do this car so you think ok. We had problems with him from the start,He was constantly tring to get us to do more and more and thats fine but would never even descuss more money... AS it is we painted it twice.and took the hrs for painting it off the bill and that was $1900 ... Then he wants all the chrome rechromed and that was extra,and was told what the cost would be.WE boxed up the chrome and took it to Charlotte and picked it up for him because he didnt want any part of it OK but you must pay for that!!! .And if we couldnt find a part that needed to be replaced,(old car and things like some chrome trim or whatever needed to be replaced) He'd say well your the body guys just find it . I cant tell you how much time we sent on the internet tring to find things he needed!!! NEVER WANTED TO TALK ABOUT MORE MONEY. and then it gets to the point where you need it to finish it .DAM!!! Then its one little thing after the next... He gets in a wreck and cant pick up the car,and others. We threathen to do the mechanics lend(sp) and that finally got him to pay,or steal...All we ended up with yesterday was $600 that he didnt snatch up......AND THE WORST PART WAS I HAD LEFT THE SHOP AT 2;30 AND THEY DID THIS AT 4;00pm. WES was there and pulled out his 9mm pistol and tried to shoot the tires out but missed we guess .... guns......i dont know im very frustrated.... we"ll get paid for this and they'll get arrested,we know these crooks like I said but.......oh well.... sorry for the book please be pateint with me...never been thru this kind of a thing over a simple thing like painting a car!!!!!!!!!!!! DR. and thanks for all your help and patientice(sp) .David.
