2 months later, a half day off work, a 30 minute drive to court, and I now have a really expensive piece of paper.....
Now I get to wait 21 days so I can start the collection process. A decade ago he was mentioned in Hot Rod, now it's the Legal News.

Yet another cautionary tale of using references and past performance when writing checks for deposits.

Good luck getting the deposit back......

J.R. Custom Auto & Boat Trim did my interior a couple of years ago, they are in East Pointe. Call Craig Riddell at 586-412-3796, he is very good and reasonable.

Thanks for the references guys, but I had it completed by a different shop, and it was done in 2 weeks. Now I can focus on getting my money back from the original shop.

Why are you selling it already??? Saw it on CL....

Court systems and laws give you a umbrella when it's sunny and take it away when it's raining. Good luck collecting.

Now that everything is done, I have no projects and nothing to do, and I'm scared I'm going to buff a hole in it!

The wife said she wants a cuddy again, so a Pantera, Banana, or Superboat outboard is in my future if/when this one sells.


The million dollar question is- why are YOU on CL looking at boats?! Hmmm?

I plan on taking the ex-wife approach....if I can't get the money, I'm at least going to make him miserable with court appearances and court officers showing up at his place of business.
