diaboli: sue her ass. Sue her for the cost plus a few extra thousand for the time and money. Have her prosecuted for theft, destruction of private property and have the guys that came to get it prosecuted for receiving stolen goods. Nail them all to the wall.
whatev: How do you have the nerve to do something like that in someone’s home? She isn’t even your wife!! She went too far and I say you dodged a bullet.
BeMoreP: Holy shit, definitely not the asshole. That’s like your girlfriend selling a dog out from under you while you are on a business trip because she didn’t like it!
The audacity. If she didn’t like it, she could’ve just ignored it. The most toxic part is that she sees no issue. Your property, your house, she throws it away? And if any judge knows the worth of that car they would understand suing her for the costs. LET ALONE THE TIME YOU SPENT ON IT.
That’s a hobby, and a damn good one. If she couldn’t support you and your project, that probably would’ve been a red flag for anything you do later on. I think this is all justified.
