Well my only option is to take some of my buds down there and assemble atleast the Kmember and tow it.

But I got to find a good shop that wont take another three months!
and im not too sure about the funds... got to be some where re$$onable.
maybe a good shop out there would like to cut me a deal in exchange for putting this shop to shame!

oh and most importantly contacting an attorney!
& my bank is very aware of the situation!

Goddamn what a horror story--and all for a simple rebuild! I hope it works out for you, and definitely dispute the charge with your CC company.

Whats up everyone. So i was at OCGMP yesterday, and I was one of the guys that was there working on our own freggin car!!! Yes it is very shitty to say the least! There were some problems with your engine(wierd *** rocker setup) and all that snazz, but not 3 or 4 months. I looked at the rocker setup you have going and personally I don't like it at all. The heads need some tlc and then the motor can be fully put together and then put into the car. A few days maxxxx!!! But nobody is really working there so I suggest you head down there and have them put the K member on and pick your car up!!! It will get done faster that way!!!
