Falsification Follies part Deux.

Just a speedy lil' update on the Falsification Follies we're high-kicking our way through ..
The Diva got a phone call from one of the wrench doctors at the transmission place yesterday. They said the two of them that had worked on the car took the radiator over to the radiator shop joint so the aforementioned misquoted radiator type guy could pressure test/examine/rip it apart.
There was the two of them there, the misquoted radiator guy, the guy from the shop next door, and the Paperwork Falsifying Assbag himself! (Imagine my quiet pleasure and smiley-face upon realizing that the other three guys were well aware that Assbag had already denied our claim after not seeing the part, and what quotes were attributed to them which pissed them off mightily. Karma. You never know when it will pop up and bit you in the butt.)
The wrench doctor told the Diva that as soon as they opened it up .. there it was .. a crack down the center of the radiator. The one that uh .. 'wasn't there' according to the Assbag. After his 'thorough inspection of the radiator'. They took pictures. Lots of pictures. The wrench doctor said it looked 'very good' for us.
The one bit that makes me uneasy is that Assbag took the cracked bit WITH him when he left. Now what would he be needing with the cracked bit? Doesn't that seem odd to you? It seems odd to me. You would think the multiple pictures would have been quite enough. But ah well.
So now, we wait, I suppose. I will give it till end of week and if we haven't heard from (or gotten a refund from) the insurance company, then I get to go down and visit them personally.
They SO don't want that. Really.
