I said a little worse. Maybe he will do the right thing and release the truck tomorrow afternoon even though it is not completely finished. If not I will pursue every legal action I can....with the help of someone I am finding out alot of useful information, of course all public information, but none the less helpful.....It is amazing what you can find out on the internet, if you know how to look it up.

Ok Sports fans Mr Hyde is home...................... Don't really know what to say about it except that it is home.

Today I will be taking my camera and doing an inventory of EVERYTHING that is wrong and looking at my options from here.

I am happy that it is in my possession just not happy about the condition. Once I kinda get everything in order and figure out what I am going to do I will post. I will get some pictures loaded in the next day or so and make a running list of things that have to be done to even make it drivable. To say I am sick and disgusted would be the understatement of the year. I didn't post last night because it was so late when we got home......

More to come..............................

I still have alot of grade work to do but that is easy work, the rain kinda slowed me down on that but since it is sunny today it should dry out preety quick.
Roofing is going on Tuesday, Vinyl Siding sometime next week. Then I will wire it , insulate it and get ready for sheetrock, paint etc... of course then lanscaping oh goodie landscaping.
Awesome work. Also, I want to see that bird!

OK Sports fans. I spent the better part of Saturday and Sunday going from front to rear on this truck. It is not a pretty sight to say the least. There is so much stuff wrong that I could not list it all here. But here is a little of the bigger things I noticed.

Not one single area on the truck is complete, or completed in the right way. It leaks transmission, radiator and power steering fluid. The motor was held in by one loose motor mount bolt.

The transmission does not shift into gear properly, the truck does not crank properly ( by this I mean you have to kinda finagle it to get it to crank and a fuel injected motor should crank right up). The entire truck has overspray on it, there are about 25 places that the paint ahs been chipped off. Body panels do not align, stereo does not function properly, interior is the wrong color, bed is not installed correctly , it sits higher on the right rear than it does on the front , kinda ****eyed if you will. The aluminum wheels have sat so long they are dull and were not polished back out.

Every fluid level is extremely low. A/C was not charged ( Even though I was charged for it)

Parts I bought ( Brand new stuff) somehow are not on the truck and have been replaced with older parts.....like chrome pieces, transmsission, rubber parts etc.... so basically this is theft.

Time for legal action.
