The car was in perfect mechanical condition when it was taken to the Jagshop. The car was there for body work. I have photographs and video footage of the car at the accident scene and after. Lets not forget the people who looked over the car at the repair facility and body shop. These people know what the condition was as the car was towed to the Jagshop from the body shop. The ONLY reason it went to the Jagshop was the promise of a lower repair cost becasue Dave had spare cars to take body parts from. It took two and a half years and the Jagshop did not do any work to the car. I decided to pick it up and take it to another place. It was raining when I picked it up so I did not inspect the car till I arrived at the shop. I was shocked at what was missing. I called David at the Jagshop and he was as nice and friendly as always. Dave told me he must have forgotten to give me the parts and he had them in a storage truck. I said fine. He told me the car was not worth fixing and I should use it as a parts car. ( I cant even do that as someone took all the parts out of the car! ) I said I would still rather fix it. I spent the last 7 months attempting to get the parts till David finally told me he had thrown away all the parts and just said tuff luck. He said he will not give me a thing and he will charge me 4 years of storage (car was there 2.5 years) if I tried anything and hung up on me. I have not been able to get in contact with him and when I do he just hangs up . I really wanted to keep this private and handle this in a good way. I do not want to damage his business. This is after all how he lives. But I cannot allow this to slide by. This has and may happen to other people. Just take a look at what is missing from the car: PARTS MISSING: horn power window switch all relays and computers everything from the electrical bay transmission computer small piece of plastic for key lock in door hinge from engine cover alternator and bracket tool set spare tire luggage rack everything from trunk fuel pump and everything for it both window switches entire brake system back bracket/cover for torsion bar drivers side torsion bar glove box left and right turn signal lights from both sides of the front molding from driver fender (fender stripped clean??) passenger door handle ac control switch entire assembly for cooling fan and radiator radiator (I know it was damaged, but want it still) cooling fans The driver side mirror was damaged at the Jagshop plus what ever I may have missed.... -- __________________________________________________________ Sign-up for your own personalized E-mail at Mail.com http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup CareerBuilder.com has over 400,000 jobs.
