Cheap CL

Well my friend saam had a 97 2.2 cl 5 speed leather. TV's in his head rests subbs ps2. stock suspension exhaust. But he had a custom color looked the same as silver97's new color and a AEM intake. Well his ratiator blew. He take's it to get fixed and when he gets it back he has a $1800 bill.

So he is pissed all he wanted was his ratiator replaced. They gave him new valves valve springs pistons etc...... he is telling the place i cant pay for this. The shop says ok leave the car here we will take care of it. @ days later the Police department calls him.

"saam your car was broken into at the bodyshop is was sitting and is totalled. "They smashed his roof in all his windows and every part of the car. took anything they could rip out. So he sells the shop the car for 500 bucks.

Now my friend scott is buying it for $1500 still has all the new internals. motor is brand new. everything was replaced. He goes to school at New England Tech and is in the bodyshop program. Its going to be his project. Do you think he should buy this CL

it would be the shop fault if your car got broken into. doesnt matter if u didnt pay them and they have to hold your car. its their responsiblity to make sure the car is as you left it on hold.

sound like the shop came out with all the electronic and made $1000 to get it off their dirty hand.

If that was my car it would have ended up with the guy in the hospital and me in jail. WOW. Your friend sam got duked in the butt and seems like he likes it.
I would make the shop fix my car and get the engine work for free.

it gotta be the shop that did it. nobody gonna stick around to pull out all that shit and then break all that windows and roof. no way they can clean out the whole car including a sub box and amp. sound like they took their sweet ass time.

was the car in a lot or just out in the open?
