Build Thread My 1986 T-top Build - Lasting Memories

[RaggedGT]

Betting the yard Robys at has a few 351's sitting around. I really feel for you dave,and I'm sorry you are going through all this. Is there anyway to get through to your brother that changing the agreeed upon price Isn't going to happen? Maybe just pay off the note he has on it and call it done.. I ask because he sounds like the type of guy (I've known a few) that will get your money and not pay off the loan/note against Doby

 

[Davedacarpainter]

He has one note on three '86 mustangs. If he can't get me the title when I give him the money, i'll hurt him.

 

[General karthief]

I know a guy named Franky in Chicago that can help

Then he cannot prove that he owns the car that you have. Put in for a lost title, tell him to take a hike. If he wants the car back he must pay for work performed.

Oh... did I already say: GET IT ALL IN WRITING?

i dunno if I was just thinking it before or actually typed it. So.... Get it in writing.

Do a go fund me page and get the 4k, keep the car and be done with your brother. I will donate, I bet a lot of others would too.

So here's my thoughts:

Tell your brother that, if he wants the car, he gives you back whatever you paid for it in the first place, plus materials/parts you've put into it, and standard shop rate of however many hours you've put into it.

Any way to file a mechanics lein or some such on it? Perhaps the threat of that would be enough (though obviously not ideal). Or even the the threat of legal action for payment on all the work already performed?

And what kind of bank does an actual vehicle loan on a 20+ year old car? When I bought my fox in 06 I had to do a signature loan because they wouldn't do a standard car loan on anything over 10 years old?

Good question about the loans, I don't know.

My credit union did an auto loan on my 1993. The purchase price was less than book price, I have a good credit score, and it was a 3 year loan at 3%. It was paid off in
1.

 

[CarMichael Angelo]

Credit unions do loans on old ass cars. #1's 86 hatch was financed at our C/U.

 

[Chuckman]

Must just be mine then, they had no problem giving me a loan (wasn't much of one, I think I paid it back in like three months), just not a car specific one so they never touched the title.

 

[Davedacarpainter]

Alright, I started back after Doby. I'm Jambing the hatch right now.

Anyone got an extra set of hatch hinges? Mine are wollered out to hell.

Wollered out?

Dave!

Wollered out?

"Festus, We goin over to mom-n-ems for supper after I fix this here wallered out hole?"

It's wallow Dave.

Because he used a dull drill bit, Jeeter wallowed the hole out.

 

[General karthief]

He is spelling it phonetically,

 

[02 281 GT]

He's from Okahoma. After he fixes the wallored out hinges, he'll have to worsh his coveralls. Maybe take a quick trip up to Miamuh.

 

[Davedacarpainter]

Ah jeez....... wallow......ok? Focus a little here. I need new hinges....anyone that can help with that issue and not about me being a redneck around?
Anyhow, cleared and in the sun. I still like this red better than Kona Blue.

 

[Davedacarpainter]

I'm going to get the spoiler and front bumper next. Tomorrow I'll flip the hatch and paint the top side.

 

[Davedacarpainter]

Ok, spoiler. Before and after.

I'll get one in the sun after lunch.
