The funny thing is, from what i can tell, he never even bothered to either A. explain his side of the story. OR B. appologize to the world for being such a pile of shit. You would think if you wanted to retain a slight shred of dignity, you either find the money, or make a public appology. Apparently he wants to have SCAMMER written on his tombstone.
I could be wrong, but since search option is disabled, there's no way to know for sure, if he has tried to come clean.

So look what I found today. 
Urban Dictionary: joe dono
1. Joe Dono
A piece of shit scammer that has a shop do 16k worth of work to his moms Celica, and when its time to pay up, he says he doesnt have the money and has his girlfriend try to do a $60 down payment. After that fails he asks the shop to park outside so he could steal it. After THAT fails he calls the cops and says they beat him up and ran him over, where they promptly tell him to pound sand..
Joe Dono: Hey I cant pay for the car but could you park it out front please?
JapWorks: No go fuck yourself

We have been in contact with both the finance company and the recovery agency that they finance company hired. Basically the finance company wants the car back and has had us provide them with what documentation we have.
Once they verify everything that we say was done actually was done, the finance company will write a check, the recovery company will pick the check up, bring it to us, allow us to verify funds, and then we will release the car to the recovery company. At which time we can all go back to our normal lifes.

I don't see how a finance company that is owed at most 5 or 6 grand for a car would write a 16 thousand dollar check to recover it -- especially on a custom car in today's economy where they could easily never recover their initial investment. The old adage that "it's always cheaper to buy someone else's restoration than to do it yourself" holds especially true these days.
There are three sides to every story...yours, his, and the truth. I wonder how divergent the truth is from the two sides presented so far.

Well, honestly there is only one truth, and that truth is.. That JOE DONO is a useless pile of shit, that needs to learn how the world works, and learn that once a scammer, dies a scammer... Everything else is irrelevant.

I (like much of the world) have been following this thread with interest on and off, and while I certainly agree with Mr. Dono is (being polite here) in need of some character growth -- something here strikes me as fishy.

Either way a recovery agent is coming to look at the car and verify all the work was done that was billed and after that it should go relatively quick.
If any of you big ballers out there are so inclined please feel free to bid on my GTO. Link in signature!

I'm willing to bet that whoever buys it will probably get confronted by Joe eventually. The car is quite well-known...

With all due respect, I wonder if JapWorks would do it...

from the sounds of things, he is a pussy, and wont confront anyone.. He'll probably wish he wasnt a fuck up, that way it could have been his.
