OK here is it........ about 12mths ago i sold a HG holden ute, rolling shell, absoluelty rust free and straighter than anything i have seen in its age bracket, to an old work buddy for $850, he had big plans for the 'G'.
Anyhow a few months ago he has gunna give it, it's new lick of paint. So he delivers it all to the panel shop(i don't know where), paid up front. WELL!!! he hasn't heard from them since, and they would not answer or return his calls to find out how it was all going..SO 2 weeks back he drives over to the panelshop and "god (cuss word) me!! the scum re-sprayer sold the ute to someone else for a measley $150!! absolutley ludicrous!! i mean WTF was he on? crack? Now... the fella i got the HG from knows the original owner of the HG ute. So the owner history of the car is known. I'm actually quite ****ed at this, i know what a great shell it was, and angry for his loss! But thank god he didnt take his monaro gaurds and bonnet to the sprayer, ida been lookin for blood! Sourced from up near Darwin! Should he get the cops or courts involved in trying to recover the 'G'? Or let our anger take it course?  : I understand that there is a lot of ford Vs holden hate and posting about a holden in a ford forum is not the smartest thing to do but its the fact of the matter that i'm trying to point out, advice would be nice. CHEERS!!!! Z&K |

Definately go to the police and the courts. The book should be thrown at this panel shop, and they should be put out of business. What they are doing is completely illegal, selling cars that don't belong to them. It's like stealing a car, then selling it. Even if he can't get the ute back, at least he could stop this panel shop from doing it to others.

You wont get the holden/ford bashing in a thread like this.
I've read your post twice and i still can't comprehend how a business that's supposed to be spraying a car can just sell it. WTF. Definitely put in a complaint.

They have stolen it, plain and simple. The sale is void.

nobody likes a cop untill they need them, and right now you need them, the law is on your side, its an open and shut case.
is there any chance of putting up the name of the spray shop, just to warn others (and to maby make it a target) |
