In a small claims case, the plaintiff is required to serve the defendant with a notice to appear.

Some states allow them to be served "in absentia" after certified attempt has failed by placing notice in "public notice" column in the classifieds. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Might want to test for power at the pump before throwing any more money at it.

That's the plan, but as long as I'm going to be under the car at the body shop, if there's power, I want to have the new pump ready to put in. I'm scraping together what I can, and as soon as I can pay it off, it's being flatbedded to your shop so it can be fixed correctly.

I'm in SLO and have a big ol' Creepy Van if you wanna use it in conjunction with a UHaul trailer. The 3/4-ton Chevy Conversion Van sits during the day, so you're welcome to borrow it to tow your teener to the Capn's place. PM me if this will help...

Heard from Steve last week, and now back to no communication, so I think he was blowing smoke again. I got a call from Jonathan at GPR today offering to loan me the $$ to get the car out of the shop. I think I'll take him up on it, and have the car flatbedded to my house, so I can fix what the shop has broken, and get it back up for sale. I'm so burned out on this whole mess.

I received an email this morning from a friend who found this thread and said it sounded like you guys were threatening to take down our website. That is just sad.
I would ask you all to consider a few things.
Mark did me a huge favor by loaning me his car.
If I were going to screw him I would have done it BEFORE I handed him $3000.00 CASH!
There is no internet available to me out in the middle of the ocean.
I tried to mail him a second check. Unfortunately I had to depend on somebody else to mail it for me because we were in Dana Point and I couldn't get to the post office before we left there, the post office is more than a mile from the harbor and the only dinghy parking was a 1 hour tow away zone. I literally didn't have time, the harbor cops there are insane.
Look at a map and tell me where in the fuck we could have possibly had internet when we were 300 miles south of the border in Mexico. WHERE?

So, I thought that I had it handled before we set off away from civilization, much as I thought that I had it handled before we left the SLO area.

Why don't you think, for just a minute, how it must feel to be me. I borrowed a friend's car and crashed it, the first crash in my life. I payed out a bunch of money to get it fixed by a friend, then I continued with my life. My friend (ex friend?) who owns 1/2 of the shop won't return my calls since they hit me with a bullshit additional damage charge.
Mark's getting fucked and his car is just getting more fucked up by the day.
I'm getting fucked and we're in a strange country and out of money. I paypal'd Mark almost half of this month's income last night.
Mark's car is STILL not finished. It's been 6 fucking months!
I've got you guys suggesting you should fuck with our website, our only potential source of future income if we want to keep cruising. Or destroy our home. Nice.

Mark, you need to check the white ground wires on top of the engine before you buy a fuel pump, it won't run unless they're attached well. Those dumbasses were screwing around up there.

Thanks for the Paypal Steve, I forget that you don't have reception a lot of the time. I'm just so frustrated! Hopefully I'll get the car home next week, and start going thru everything to find out what's wrong. I just want the pump on hand for replacement if it's gone bad. It shouldn't be, but who knows what all has been done to it while they were in there.

This thread has a stench. I'm not sure it was necessary. Yeah, I get the original bummer. But it's a lotta shit flung at sww. I thought he was a stand-up guy??? But I'm just going by history here.

I don't know. I'm just bummed to see this crap.
