I got my transmission rebuilt from John Sheppard at Shep Trans. A stage 4 tranny with a 4 spyder diff thing.

I must say at first when I was talking with John and trying to figure out what my best setup could be John was nothing more than very helpful and approached me from a very professional stance.

After 3 weeks the tranmission was complete and I send money order payment just as agreed prior to work. After two weeks John called me and told me that he as not recieved the payment yet. After checking with shipping, the payment got rejected becuase some labeled the address wrong and the payment came back to me. Here is were it got interesting.

John thought I was lying to him and demanded that I send him a copy of proof that I even made a money order to him. No big deal there, but the odd thing is, he put my tranmission up for sale!!! Isnt that completely retarded?? I dont know maybe he thought I was trying to scam him or something. I sent someone out next day with the money order to pick it up from his shop. His secretary Anthony told me over the phone the next before pick up that he would write me an invoice stating that the transmission was repaired under warranty so that I would have less hassle at the border. Next day when my guy asked for the paper, Anthony told him I was full of it and that Anthony NEVER agreed to anything like that.

So I dont know. I had someone drive 6 hours one day because they are suppose to be the best in our cars. I didnt install the transmission yet, they tanked it and it looks literally brand new. But I just feel that they should have handled things a little differently instead of thinking that Im a liar trying to screw them.
