A LESSON LEARNED!

billstoy · Mar 3, 2014

J said this guy was proud of his work and that his work was worth 1600$, tell us who it is so we can advertise for him!! He owes you your money back plus at least 500$ damages so you can undo the **** he has done and start over!!

Through a little detective work, I've figured out who it is.

I've seen that he sells LOTS of vehicles on here. I hope he doesn't work on all of them. I've thought about going up to his place and looking at a few that he's posted but I know now to never look at anything he's got.

It's a damn shame too, you had to pass my shop to get to his :driving:

well after reading all this BS figure its about time to respond. Me and big_dodge did the work on this ftoy. First of all we didn't build this rig, 2nd of all a whole lot of the pics u posted are of the work u had already did on the rig before we ever received it. Also you never mentioned the fact that this rig was supposed to be running and driving when I picked it up. Well it wasn't (motor wldnt start, no coolant at all in it, battery dead as ****, drive shafts not bolted in, axles weren't even in it when I got their, clutch not bled, no throttle cable, pedals not bolted down etc etc etc. ) Also u never mentioned that I pretty much gave u a **** ton of free parts with the deal. And we were not the ones who cut or notched the tubing on this rig, once again were not the builders. Im not going set here and have a pissing match about this ****. we did not beat those body panels up and like stated above a whole lot of those pics weren't our work! Looks as a few things have been changed as well since it left our shop. Me or big dodge aren't professionals but I will post pics of our work below. We do good work and price our work at fair prices. We did everything u asked us to do and did not hack ur ride up. If u feel its in ur best interest to bash us then go right ahead but we have built a lot of rigs and cages and have several ppl who we do work for over and over again. Below is just a few pics of OUR actual work, if anyone wants to see more I will be glad to send

Who did the grab handle ? how much in parts did he get? 1600$ goes a long way in shop hours , up to 80 hours depending on who does the work, " helper" ?

You should change the thread title to "I got f$cked"

Hopefully some guys can pool together for a work day and fix this mess.

Not proffesionals? No ****. I wouldn't even call the work worthy of being a hack job.

Give him his money back and I am sure he would be willing to give you your parts back.

btw we also didn't run the brake lines, simply replaced the dry rotted existing ones. Parts include a new 4x10 piece of aluminum sheet metal, cooler for power steering, power steering reservoir, radiator hoses, hoses for the coolant side of the propane, thermostat neck, thermostat gasket, thermostat, exhaust gasket, some fitting adapters, wire for the volt guage and alternator, power steering hoses, hose clamps, two front rubber brake lines, two front hard brake lines, two rear hard brake lines, rear tfitting for brakes, jug of brake fluid, gallon of antifreeze, new throttle cable, an old muffler we had laying behind the shop that has no value, and a few other misc. odds and ends. We worked over 50 hours on it and that's 2 of us at times and 3 of us for a day and half.

Well most of this is bs. Bc I seen this rig in person an seen it when James first started it. The chassis was a perduction chassis that was welded
When James got it. Every thing was just tacked together when it went to buggy68 an he was goin to finish weld a few things. An the skins wer ****ed
up when James got it. Hell that ruff **** cut me a few times an ripped My shirt getting in an out of it. So I can 100% say it didn't look like this before this **** ****ed it up. Go look at James build thread. An hell I could take pics of other people's work an post it up.

When you have a business you put your name and reputation on EVERYTHING you send out of that shop. If you sent this out then it reflects on what kind of work you do. No way you can can honestly say that this is by any means near quality work. Best thing to do is step up and give the man his money back and apologize. You will never make back what it will cost you in the long run by standing behind this kinda work and putting your reputation as a man who thinks he should be paid for his time no matter what and not for his quality of work.
