...he said he was getting it back in a week on the 22 so he should have it back. Maybe the body shop gave him more trouble?

We need to start having contracts with shops, kinda like you do when you build a house.

Many contracts state that if not finished by "X" day, it's a $X penalty for every day it's passed due.

HAHAHA i was soo thinking that same damn thing!!! My friend spent 15k on his car and was promised to have it done by 5 days after they get the parts. So he had his parts shipped out next day delivery..... its been 1 mnth and a 1/2 now and yesterday he was told "it will be ready to pick up tommorrow, the motor iis already in and rebuilt it just need to be reconnected"

He goes by today to find the motor still out of the car and them not working on it at all today (they had some other things come up to work on)... umm as if his 15k he spent and the shops promise to have it done in 5 days, wasnt as important as the other cars that he "all of a sudden" needs to work on! They now wont even start work again on it until monday..

We really do need to start getting contracts!! Its so unfair they can break thier side of a deal with little effect to them! Time is money Sorry for
