If the prisoners are in good standing, they usually do this. My cousin was in prison for 19 years and he told me you get some freedom if you've been good for the past 2-3 years.

Yup, one of Jeremy's friends that let him work on his car in the shop got impounded. He wasn't involved at all with that shady business. I felt bad cause we saw his mom run over there with papers and receipts even though the car was already towed out of there. They gotta do their investigation and all.

They are... It makes me wonder if any research or enough research is done on people applying to be vendors on here. It is a little sketchy how many OEM parts this guy had and made me wonder from time to time.

I don't think they ever had a website. They were a vendor on here and almost bought a subframe from them. Glad I didn't now.

Yeah, it looks like they've already been removed from trueEvo.com as well.

Kinda makes me wonder what is gonna happen to the people who buy the parts from them being they didn't know they were stolen. Because it is against the law to buy stolen goods. Talked to a cop buddy of mine and he was telling me that they can get in some trouble but who knows. I feel for them if they do get into **** specially if they didn't know parts were stolen.

Thats crazy i remember when this kid was evokid03 on here had nice stock car then all of a sudden he went all in with like a 30k build tore it apart, parted out, rebuilt, the whole forum was sorta like what do you do for money. i remember to this day he said he was just hustling parts started with a BOV sold it for more than he paid and went from their. LMAO has a whole new meaning now.....

Even with that being said, i still believe their is more to this story. only reason i say this is because if this is true this kid is the DUMBEST criminal in history. who runs a public chop shop? if he was connected to stolen cars and things of that nature i doubt he would be so public with a "business" on a world wide forum. think about it you have a shop full of stolen parts and cars and your posting picks on the internet, selling things on a public forum so everything is traceable. Idk just have a gut feeling their is more to this story that will reveal itself in time..

They changed their name to Midwest Performance. Thats why you can't find them as easily on here. Go to Marketplace up top on the tabs. Then Evom Sponsors. Then under Basic Vendor Listings, look for Sierra Motorsports. Look at threads started by that name and everything comes back under Midwest Performance.

This is nuts. To think this whole time a shop has been stealing these cars is crazy.
