I ABSOLUTELY TELL EVERYBODY ABOUT THIS.







No amount of money could have made me happy or kept me quiet. This guy doesn't deserve to be in business.
I remember as a 23 year old I had built a cool RX7. Mechanically cool but still had ****ty paint. I didn't have any extra $$ at the time was working and going to school with a few hundred in the bank. I came out from work one night and my car wasn't in the parking lot. My heart sank. Filed a police report. They found it the next day stripped and burned. Police said they burn them so there are no fingerprints.

I didn't have $$ to build another car for years. Why the sad story because taking something from somebody who can't replace it is a big deal.

Here is the thing. GW has the $$ to fix the F up. That doesn't mean he should have to, he shouldn't, none of us should; but he can recover from a screwing over and his life goes on.

From what I know of Greg I would say he is concerned about the next guy, not revenge or not just himself.

What about the guy who has dumped all his disposable income into his dream at the same shop? Say he is a responsible guy and spent a bunch of $$ but the rest of his $$ was in savings and his home and places it should be for his and his family's future. Now that guys dream of enjoying what he earned is destroyed. What is he supposed to do take $$ out of his kids college fund or deny them something because he needs to spend twice what he thought so his car can even run.

A guy like this will probably end up selling the F'd up project at a loss and never get to enjoy his dream car. He may never. Unlike me losing something at 23 he is screwed. I had time to get in a place where I can afford to build what I want. Many people who wait til late in ife to enjoy what they have earned cannot recover.

People like the guy who runs that shop make me sick. Nobody should ever let anyone like that pay them off at the expense of the next guy. If you do that then you are no better than the guy who just tried to screw you.
