He took it to a local mechanic who was willing to take on the job, “I really just wanted to bolt up the drivetrain and get it roadworthy,” Brian forcibly chuckled. “But basically he started making excuses, and kept asking me for more money.”
Brian ended up chasing the mechanic from one temporary shop to another.
While all this was going down, Brian dropped off front and rear seats at a well-known local upholstery shop. Even though it was in a sketchy area, the shop had been around for years and had done some nice work. They had also started a chemistry lab in the basement of their building to cook up meth for an eager local clientele.
The DEA raided the joint and closed it down. Soon after, the EPA came in, claimed the place was a hazardous waste site and confiscated all of its contents—including Brian’s seats and interior.
This time, the mechanic disappeared for good. The car was gone, and so were all of Brian’s parts.
Acting on a tip from a tow agency, Brian located the Chrysler in an impound lot on the outskirts of town. Title in hand, he went to claim his beloved Doris. Sadly, it didn’t go as smoothly as he expected, but he had a plan. “After an unsuccessful attempt to get her back, I ended up putting on my repo man’s hat and actually stole her back from the storage lot.
