I spoke to the shop owner today in regards to this matter. I requested the ability to have someone (one of the many helpful Yenko.net members) inspect my vehicles and remove the coupe if it is completed as stated.

He clearly stated that noone will be authorized to come into his shop to inspect my vehicles. I suggested that if this is a problem that he can roll them out into the parking lot or even bring them to another location for inspection but he clearly stated that there will be no inspections and that if that is not acceptable to call his attorney.

Well, I did just that. I spoke with his attorney who the owner has already spoken to. As a side note - I have been in business for years and never needed an attorney to help me with my business, I guess this is a sign of what type of person and or company I am dealing with. I demanded I have a chosen party come and inspect my coupe that is supposed to be complete on Oct. 10 and also at this time inspect my convertible that is supposed to be in process of completion. As well, I stated that if my coupe is complete I will have it removed and expect a refund of the overpayment for work that will no longer be completed. At that time I also expect one of two things - either my convertible is completed in a reasonable amount of time (2 weeks is my idea of reasonable) or I expect an immediate refund of all monies paid towards that car. The only thing the attorney suggested is that he would like to be present during this Oct. 10 inspection period. I also agreed to only send (1) person at this time (owner must have had prior experiences with multiple people intimidating them).

So the drama continues. I appreciate all the help being offered and I am expecting a returned call from the attorney next week for confirmation of this agreement. Lets hope that this method will resolve the issue otherwise I know we also have other options.
