Thanks all, It is really good feeling to have friends
that support. Since Brutus is home, I no longere feel like he is being held for
ransom. I did feel some compassion for the painter as he lost his wife to a
brain tumor a year ago and now his adult daughter is in serious condition with
the same thing. However that does not give him permission to treat me as
he has in the last stage of his body work and paint. But now I am mad. you
don't poke a gentle giant with a stick! I first will do everything legal to get
Brutus fixed right at his expense. He had the nerve to tell me he would
not work on my car any more. REALLY???---DUH!. For thereapy, I am going to
start right away with several things I can go ahead and do. I have some
REAL nice newy polished stainless trim to install that was done by one
of the good-guys in our midst. 8-) If that does
not work, plan B will be considered
I want to get my spare hood installed and then
will post some pics-----Remember our Veterens and give thanks for
them.................................MO

Mo,
Following your build of Brutus I felt I was part of it as I'm sure others
were also. As you said, this sure has taken the fun out of the build. Brutus
is back home, start planning and doing some with her right away and get that
spirit back. This project will turn out even better now that you're in
charge.

I have been waiting to tell you all, the good news that my 64
Dodge project is painted. It has been for about a month. BUT, something has
happened to my former friend-painter, and he has really ripped me off.
As per our agreement ( not in writing) I was expecting to have a final
bill of about $1000. But the bill was for $5,200 ! and he would NOT negotiate.
I had to take him to small claims court to settle it. The judge
ruled that I pay $3,200 . The painter was mad because he didn't
get the total of his bill and would not give me back my car- even tho I
had a bank money order for the $3,200. I had to get the Sheriff to go
with me to enforce the judges ruling. I loaded up my car and there was
extensive damage to the new paint in several ares. I asked the Sheriff
new young deputy what to do about it, and he said it would have to be
settled in a civil suite. I asked to get the paint and materials that I had
paid for, and the painter said he threw it away when I told him I wasn't
paying that bill. This painter must think I won't do anything
because I am a "nice guy" , but he never has seen me mad!!. This sure has
taken the fun out of the Brutus build.
Moral of the story, never make an agreement - even
with a friend- unless it is in writing. When money is involved a friend can
become your worst enemy........................................MO
