I know he needed the money but with his health deteriorating, he really shouldn't be taking on such projects until he truly is physically able to do it from start to finish without compromise.
But for now, it would be best for him to get his health in order. Truely that should be what's important for him and his family.
I can hella respect this bro. Grown ass man decision. Maybe when he gets better u can get your money back lol

He's in financial hardship. Sure I could take him to civil court and win. It would probably lead into bigger problems for him. Is it going to make me feel better? Probably not.
Building a case isn't gonna happen by itself. And the fact that I got my car back and it's being painted by someone I truly trust, I'm already 10x happier and relieved than I was at this time last week. So do I want to go back and gather all that crap for $2600 and to ruine someone's life? Some might enjoy that, but that's not me.
I'm past this whole ordeal, and I'm not looking back. I got a car to put together. That's my focus.
Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose, in the end you have a $2600 lesson, been there, done that, it's not the end of the world, can't wait to see the finished project.

I think your view on the situation is crazy. However, I hope the best for you in finishing the car.

Waiting on the correct K member from UPR.
Can you believe this shit. Talked to the sales guy that I'm doing a Coyote swap on a 90 Mustang so he sends me a K member for a pushrod motor.
The sales guy is nolonger with the company, but they were cool to ship one out right away and sending a call tag for the other to be shipped back on their bill.
One thing about UPR, they really try to get it right. And I bought the K member back in January.
I will post pics once everything is together. ~end of October. The rewiring, running the fuel/brake lines, and the plumbing for the smog/vapor canister is what will take some time. Probably by the end of year for first start.

Rear speakers installed
Blacked out rear license plate area and door window trim.
