ATTN: Joe Dono AKA SCP_Celica SCAMMER
Let's just all admit that it's a small shop, that has learned a new business lesson. They aren't some huge shop , with 6 bays, 3 lifts, a dyno, and a million in inventory. Just a couple of friends trying to make it as entrepreneurs in an industry that they enjoy.
It happens.
It happens.

Well sorry but the picture has been rehosted elsewhere several times and has been included in a video or two too so it is now permanently out there on the internet. I can have it deleted off the jap works site but it isn't going to do much good ultimately

no one is releying on anything. the donations where offered. the shop has been paid for out of pocket by the owners for everything. this kid screwed them out of a lot of money which would make it hard for any new business to recover from. much less while trying to sue said kid.
Pay it forward....

I was linked to this from AR15.com, and I am confused about a few things. First and foremost, I will admit I was not able to complete all 90+ pages of this thread. There is simply too much nonsense and bad spelling to wade through, so I skipped ahead. In doing so, I understand I probably missed a few important aspects of what all is going on in this mess, so please bear with me.
How exactly does a business lay out this kind of custom work without any type of retainer? I mean, it defies logic that a competent business would place themselves in this sort of position, especially considering the type of clientele they serve. Its one thing to lay out this kind of work on a car that has significant value, but you're talking about $16k on a car that's barely worth $12K. I don't think there is any way, in good faith, I could forward that type of credit to anyone I didn't know extremely well, and especially not an unknown 20 year old. You place yourself at great risk doing so, and we clearly see in this thread what can happen.
