On August 29, 2017 I took my 1964 Chevy nova to this shop To rebuild the motor, carburetor, front suspension, wiring, radiator and fan, electric water pump, front and control arms, coil over springs and speedometer cable. Derrick agreed to do the work and told me it would take a little over a month. He requested a Payment of $3500 upfront. I paid the rate and on that same day before the work was even started Derrick told me the car would be freeway safe and run on regular gas he called on August 30, 2017 and requested $4000 more on September 14, 2017 he asked for an additional $3000. On September 19, 2017 he asked for an additional $3000 again. He told me these additional charges were for new parts and labor, this made sense to me at the time as I had purchased this car as is. On January 22, 2018 I paid him an additional $1000 and finally got the car back however he said that the car now needed special gas in order to run. I signed two documents at his shop that day and never received a copy of those documents. Additionally when I got the car home I could see that the car was covered in overspray damage. I scrape the paint off the windows and took it for a test drive the next day immediately my car broke down on the freeway. I called Derrick and he told me he was going to a car show it would be unavailable so I told the car home at my own expense of $275. Upon review his receipt to me included a new battery which I do not have. I had to turn my case into the Bureau of automotive repair in order to receive any response from Derrick. Despite all of this my car is still not working and I am out $14,500. read more
