tawidow, didn't your original contract with bob say something along the lines of if your husband passed away you would get a refund? If theres no time limit on that specific contract, he can't claim company policy over a very specific contract. He is legally obliged to fufill that specific contract/agreement. Also, even if its not in the contract itself, if he said anything about a refund if you husband passed, it is a verbal contract. He really has no leg to stand on with this. I happen to be stationed in NC if anyone needs anything. Its still about a 5 hour drive to get to Asheville NC, but I could help with phone numbers and contact here in NC.
To think that I almost drove out there with my car to have some work done on it by Bob back in 2008/2009. I also beleive that my trans am is actaully from Bob. I cant post pictures of it but I will say that anyone getting a car from there be diligent to pull up the carpet. Mine had a bunch of foam and stuf like that inserted and then the undercarriage was painted. Luckily I caught it before I bought the car. The guy I bought it from said the car was from out west in asheville. He drove it back to Jacksonville NC and told me that it kept overheating every hour or so. He also had to put about 1k into the motor just to make it run decent.
It also had a 455 HO decal on the shaker scoop and his description was what he was told. A 455 bored 30 over. It turned out to be a 400 never been bored. Also had a really high lift cam in it...with stock valve springs and stock heads. Holly double pumper 600cfm carb with headers and a Edelbrock intake....Scoop was attatched to the hood....Transmission was replaced by the guy I bought it from...The paint job was pitted, which happens when you dont let the coats dry. The body work was non existent...Paint over rust...Interior was...not too bad...but them floors...
Anyways this car sounds like the guy I bought it from was antsy with bob and this was the final product...The only good thing out of it was the motor and now I have a kinda decent parts car....
Edit: cant post pictures because im in the marines using the government computer...cant get on photobucket
