From January of 2008 until March 18,2008 I never heard a word from Troy Bobbit and could not get anyone to return a call to me about my parts.Out of the blue,Troy Bobbit called me on March18,2008 and informed me that they were no longer in business and that between his attorney and him that they satified my order.He also said that he would like to start another company under a new name but thinks all of this negitive publicity he has received will hurt his chances of doing so. He only has to look at himself and what he has told people than he will know why he gets all the negitive publicity,the man doesn,t have a clue and probably never will.I hope someday he will see the light.To this day I still have not received the correct parts that I ordered in November of 2006 and it sounds like I never will.If you are in this same situation you need to take some action on your behalf.

i have followed this post for some time.and has anybody ever got any thing good from these people.or just all junk.just wondering ?????????

Bruis Glass
 

No to your question as far as quality. I only ordered a 4 inch cowl hood, which came in and was lacking material in several major areas. Rather than send it back and lose everything, I re-shaped it and added new glass to it to thicken it up and strengthen the whole hood up. I would never recommend their product to anyone and have since found a better source.

Troy "thinks " he got everyone....if anyone has had a bad transaction,you must call and continue to press the attorney general...enough people together will make a difference...his new company(scam) is called Custom Truck Solutions

If anyone has a new way to get in touch with Troy Bobbitt at Bruis Glassworks let me know. I have some unresolved money issues with him/them on the last full page ad in Atlantic Racing Review I printed for them. All the phone numbers are dead. Also, those are the same folks that were changing their name to Southern Composites that gave a gift certificate for $250 that Gerald Dyer won at the banquet.

Custom Truck Solutions is no new business. But it's not a legally registered business. At least not in La. and most likely nowhere in the USA. I think they may be personal aquaintances to those Nigerian guys. :D

update
 

i actually recieved a phone call this morning from the attorney general and was told that Troy Bobbitt and the owner of Bruis Glassworks has filed bankruptcy and everyone that has a complaint on file will be recieving a letter in the coming weeks...if you havent filed a complaint ,your time is running out...it is up to you and you only to file a complaint or just sit back and let them slide with your money...chances are you will get nothing back,but you will still be named in the bankruptcy which is better than nothing at all...and yes,they ARE trying to do business under the name of Custom Truck Solutions

I hope the attorney general got that information from a reliable source, like the court filing system. He's been " filing " bankruptcy since August 07 but bounced the check to his attorney. He's done business under Custom trucks for quite some time now, believe me " I " should know. Just ask they guys at American Luxury Coach in South Carolina that he deals with. He stays on top of the beds because that's bigger money. They actually look real nice. They make them for several big truck dealers. Both business had great potential but was ran by the wrong guy. Troy just needs some honesty and integrity instilled in his heart. I personally believe he had good intentions in the beginning, got behind on bills and chose the wrong path with all of you. If there is a so called list, then anyone who got taken better get on it even if it's less than $100 BGW owes you. Good Luck to all involved.

i personally hope he rots in a prison cell somewhere or someof his customers bump into him on the street

I bought 2 bodies from this guy in middle of the year 2004.I got both of them but they weren't the best quality stuff you have ever worked with.One was a Chevy II body,I had to buy a steel donor car to cut the windshield cowl out of because they cut it out of the car.The other was a cutlass body and it was not real nice either but usable. The 2 reasons I used this guy was first he was cheap,second was I live in TN where Bruis Glassworks was started by a man and his wife in a little shop(barn) behind their house.Dewayne Bruis did nice work for the money when I called for the bodies he said he was in bad health and had sold it to some guys from LA. I called and got Troy on the phone and made an order in July he said about six weeks on both and needed half the money up front.I finally harrassed him enough and they were ready 2nd week of Oct. We went down and picked them up,got home started the build and found many problems with measurments and fitment but that is what happens when you go for cheap. I'm not trying to defend TROY or the mystery owner he kept calling simply T every time we talked just trying to defend Mr. Bruis and his wifes name. Sorry for all your guys bad luck and God will take care of the wrong doers on this earth. Thank you.

iwas lucky but then again i wasn't
 

i bought a front end and doors for my tubechassis beretta from them a couple of years ago. the doors and the one piece rear fit perfect but i had them extend the front 6 inches and that was where my nightmare began. one side matched and the other was off 3-4 inches. then match that side and you guessed it....it caused the other side to be off 3-4 inches but at least i didnt lose all my money good luck guys

YA, SAME HERE. I ORDERED MARCH 07', WAS TOLD 4-6 WEEKS, GOT 70' CHEVELLE FRONT END AND WRONG HOOD (SENT FLAT STOCK) END OF MAY, I ONLY GOT IT BECOUSE IT WAS SENT WRONG (YEAR) TO SOME ONE ELSE IN D.C. I BELEAVE IT WAS, AND THE GIRL WHO ANSWERED THE PHONES FOR TROY GOT IT RESHIPPED TO ME IN ROCHESTER. I FINALY GOT THE 4" COWL HOOD AND DECK LID IN OCTOBER. IT WASENT THE BEST BUT FAR FROM THE WORST. HE STUCK ME FOR THE S & H ON THE HOOD & DECK LID, $175.00. I DONT MEAN TO BE RUDE BUT AT LEAST I GOT MY STUFF AND A EXTRA FLAT HOOD. I FEEL SO BAD FOR THE PEOPLE I TALKED TO ON THE PHONE THERE, I KNOW SHE FELT BAD LIEING TO ME, THEN SHE STARTED TO TELL ME THE TRUTH AS WELL AS GIVING ME HIS CELL # AS SHE WAS SICK OF TALKING TO ME , THIS MADE MY DECICEON TO PAY THE $175 SHIPPING AT LEAST I GOT MY STUFF. IF ONLY HE TOLD THE TRUTH ABOUT BAD EMPLYEES, ECT WE WOULD NOT BE HERE BASHING HIM. I AM IN BUISNESS MY SELF AND I TOLD HIM THAT IF I DID NOT CALL CUSTOMERS BACK AND TELL THEM THE TRUTH I WOULD BE OUT OF BUISNESS. I HOPE HE LEARNED A LESSON. KILLER KEN

Mr Iamale,
I assure you it was never the employees fault on anything.
Troy would like for you and everyone else to think it was though. He would throw his moma to the wolves if it got the heat off his back. JMO.
BTW, I was told by a bankruptcy attorney, that he couldn't file until the taxes on the business were paid. Can't file bankruptcy on taxes. The taxes haven't been paid in about 4 yrs. Hope you guys get everything and then some. Got a feeling he's about to be in Brett Bowers shoes.

Also understand he has moved or is in the process of a move to Cotton Valley, LA. Don't know an address but it's a small town.

Re: BRUIS GLASSWORKS
 

[Hey Sheryl,
The only person I hold responseable for my not getting what I ordered or my money back is Troy. As a parent youy can show your child the right road to take but it comes down to your child taking to right path. Some find it more fun to take advantage of others then to do what is right. Troy will pay for his bad dealings. It will never be enough to repay the grief he has caused. Most of us racers can't afford to be taken to the cleaners. I am one that hurt because of paying for a product I didn't get. Let alone no refund like he said. Some lessons are harder then others. Oh well things work out one way or another.

Keeping it alive baby!

Troy Bobbitt
 

Just a little update on Mr Troy Bobbitt. It it my understanding that he was arrested yesterday for issuing worthless checks (hot checks). It's just a matter of time before everything else catches up to him. His daddy bonded him out so he didn't get to spend the night with Bubba. To all that have lost money to him, maybe this will be one step closer for a little restitution. I understand there is a lot more to follow for Mr Bobbitt. Will let you know more when I find out.

x3

shame i would like to see him spend the night with bubba

Someone is selling Burris fiberglass parts on RJ now!
 

I talked to this guy and asked if it was burris glass he replied yes it was. Not sure if it is the owner or someone that just bought their leftovers.....

http://www.racingjunk.com/category/0...-For-Sale.html

His parts are junk!!!!!! Fit was horrible !!!

guy is a scumbag and now i have moved to the states i very much look forward to catching up with him

After following this string for several months, I decided to go with Hairy Glass in Jacksonville, Fla for my new car.

I sent 1/2 ($2K) deposit to Tom West. In three weeks, Sandra called and said my body was in finishing. I sent the balance and received a call in less than one week. She found Old Dominion was $100 less than Wilson. I got the pro number, the body arrived a day sooner than expected, there was no crate charge and the thing looks great!

With so much bad you hear, I wanted to inject some good new for a change.

Hairy Glass is a CLASS ACT. Thank you for an American Made Body!!

Dave

Enjoy
