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

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.

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.
