Default Pics of VRT working out of Mikes House!

Sh*t like this really pisses me off.Here is some pics of VRTS shop now.We have a shop here in San Diego, we work hard and we build some very nice products and cars.It is not easy owning a shop and there is alot of crap that goes along with it. When I see Miguel Alvarez(AKA Michael or Mr.A.) screw people over,shut down his shop and then revert back to a home based garage like nothing has ever happened, it really,really,really angers me The fact is that this is totally illegal! He is not licenced, insured, bonded, he has no BAR licence. No business licence, No EPA licence, nothing. My point is that it is hard enpough to have a shop and be legitimate and when someone thinks they can try to operate under cover, it is complete BS. So I just wanted to let people and VRT's potential cuistomers know where your car is at, or going to be, if you decide to do business with them. Remember, there is no potential recourse when you deal with something/someone like this! If your car is stolen,damaged, blown-up,rained on or even if his dog poops on your seat,there is nothing you can do!

BTW, If anyone is wondering why I am doing this...because it isnt right. He is our competition here in this area and he is giving everyone that is a legitmate shop a bad name.I also have a really nice 1500Sq.ft shop at my house that completely blows the doors off of what VRT is working with and I choose to do it the legal and right way.

Looks more like a car port than a garage. I agree this poor form. Off topic but Tim are you going to make it to the Peterson show in LA this weekend (Sat)?
Back on topic Mike should be ashamed of himself. I hope they aren't building SCC's motor under a car port.

Maybe someone should call the police? It could be dangerous criminals that are there.
