My buddy is a mechaninc, and the owner of the Diamante brought the car to him for the head gasket work and then sorta dissappeared. Months later, my friend moved to a new house (all the while attempting to contact this deadbeat) and brought the car with him. He's reached the owner a few times in the last 15 months, and the guy has turned out to be a total loser. "Oh yeah, I'll bring you some money" or "Well I've been so tied up (read: Locked up)". Anyhow, we've decided to try to get an abandoned vehicle title on this thing since the fella seems to have no interest in picking up the car or repaying the towing costs that have been laid out to move it around. My buddy has wanted the Max (yes, it's an auto) since I bought it, so I convinced him to trade if the whole thing works out. He also owes me about $900 in free labor for a mini van I gave him about six months ago, so that is in my favor. Anyhow, I'll let you guys know how it turns out-
