hollyy shitttttt... aaron i dont think i was thinking clearly lastnight when you tryed explaining how big this all got. so when this BBQ/carshow gonna be?

It is obvious that for financial reasons the shop, once they own this car, will be selling or parting it out. Whatever they can do to it to create revenue. But this car, or the pictures once it is gone, will always represent the initial struggle of a group of entrepreneurs on their search for success. I think, if it was in any way possible, it would somewhat of a symbol for the shop if they manage to keep it. But they probably hate it too much by now and will be sick every time they look at it.

anyone else thinks so?

man I wonder how many calls that kids house must be getting. I don't think people should be calling him and harassing him. Should be left to the courts to bury this chump.

First of all I would like to give my sympathy for the owners of Jap Works and their families. It is hard enough to make in the car businesss without being scammed by a loser! I find it almost unreal how some many people from so many different states, countries, etc.. Have shown nothing but support! It is truely amazing!

If you have a problem with them receiving donations, don't bother posting it. You are not obligated to donate, nor did Jap Works ask for it, please read the entired thread before posting that. And everyone that is critizing their business knowledge, everyone makes mistakes and learns from them, they took a risk and got burned. The important thing now is not in the past, it's how fast everyone can get them back on their feet and back in the shop, and prosecute this scammer to the full extent of the law!
Good luck guys!

Totally agree. No sense in harassing the rest of the family because he's a thief.

You obviously didn't read the entire thread, because a mechanic's lien outranks a bank's lien, so the mechanic would get the car and the bank would get whatever collateral the mother put up in relation to the car because she doesn't have it any more.

No I didn't, I don't have time to read the entire thread with all it's useless posts in between the important ones. Someone should start a link directory of relevant posts at the beginning of the thread. Plus I am not famaliar with Florida law. Has the mom challenged the modifications and ruled she is responsible for the modifications to the car since she is the original lien holder that the mechanics lien would have to be tied to? That would just f*ck over the mom, the kid would get off scottfree.

Cornwallace, I documented your recapp on the FB page listing you as the source. I figured it would be best to keep a consistent documentation of the events.
