GREAT UPDATE!!!
I got up this morning kind of annoyed and I called the PD auction to confirm what time auction started and if his car was sold for sure. Well...The officer said for some reason the car was pulled from the auction floor, but would be included in the up coming auction. They said they were actually trying to find my number since I was trying so hard to get information on the car. Personally I feel that they may have either concluded that they were in the wrong by auctioning it of before 45 days, or they state could get more money from the car from my son than the auction. I could be because I kept a calm head and remained calm through all my correspondences. Anyway, my son could come pick it up if he had all the paperwork and fees he had prepared yesterday!! He did because he came the day before:)

I ran over to my sons job picked him up and had him bring all the fees and correct paperwork AND HE GOT THE CAR BACK!!

It cost him $1700 in fees and I have the keys, so live and learn.

2 lessons I learned today. 1) Never give up 2)Be polite and nice to officers and they will help you


Still will keep looking for my other TC....someday...someday

Wow man, really glad to hear that at least one of the cars worked out, hopefully you never give him that car back(It better be in YOUR driveway!), as I am a firm believer in earning something like that, I.E. Blood, sweat, and tears.

An escort?  shiznit, I'd get the kid a GEO until he can demonstrate that he can handle the responsibility of a car like that.  There are absolutely no excuses that can justify getting a car like that impounded.

PS, you DID look at it real good for damage or missing parts, right?  Some of the impounds around here are real shady.

Never thought to look because it was in a Police impound. I just parked it in the garage, took the keys and locked it inside. Never looked back.

I guess I should check. Do that this weekend.
