By all indications given in this discussion http://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsche-911-technic...er-50.html, MotorMeister is FINALLY going out of business. They were/are selling customer's cars with lien sale titles as seen on Craigslist and in this current ebay auction:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/151160997390
This is in addition to the cars and engines seen held hostage at the 1:10 mark of this 2010 video: Sneak Peak of Motor Meister's New Facility for 2010! - YouTube
According to a good source, MM's facility is locked down with investigators checking things out. If your car or engine is seen in the above links, I would make an attempt to claim them now. Call the Downey Police and report your car/engine stolen so there is a paper trail to get what's yours when the investigators sort this out.
Check out the photos below taken from the above links. I wonder if there's anything we can do to help reunite these cars and engines to their proper owners...document VIN and engine numbers and post them here?

Seems these guys and AA seem to get a lot of bad feedback for there poor service,funny how they appear to have been in business of doing this for so long,must have good lawyers?,maybe someone could explain why this can happen.
I would have no personal experience living on the other side of the world,but my experience with USA vendors has been very good overall....so far |

"Jerry" is frequently running around 4-5 ads on Craigslist selling stock to big bore 2332 CC engines under the name Jerry's VW Heaven.
Many Many ripoff complaints under former business names of Motormeister, and German Auto in google and yelp searches. _________________ 1954 oval ragtop black

I am mostly on the vanagon forum and me and father have fallen victim to Gerald L Marks. He took the deposit and our stuff and won't reply to any voicemails, texts, emails, etc... I have tried numerous times to show up and get my stuff and he is never there, and his helper won't let me give me back our stuff. He took our stuff and deposit on 7/19/17. I have filed a complaint with the BAR and have been trying to gather as much information as possible for the advisor assigned to my complaint. |

The shop Jerry Marks Jr had in los alamitos has been closed. My complaint with the BAR has been closed. Jerry filed bankruptcy and the landlord is still waiting to get into the shop. The bankruptcy has postponed the landlord taking over the space and giving everything back.
If you are a victim file a claim with the Bankruptcy Trustee administrator especially if you'd like a chance to get your property back. Her name is Jen Papadaupolis and I've had no luck with the phone but she does reply to email. Her contact info is:
Jen Papadaupolis 714-814-8855.
