MIDWEST CITY, Okla. (KFOR) — A Midwest City man has turned to NewsNation affiliate KFOR for help after he says his classic truck has been in the shop for nearly two years.

Ken Sciberras brought his 1970s Dodge Power Wagon to a repair shop for a brake job. He knew it would take some time, but not this long.

It is still sitting on jack stands in the lot of OK Wheel & Brake.

“We discussed a conversion from drum brakes to disc brakes in the front, and I said, ‘okay, I’d be willing to entertain that’ and so we agreed that was probably the best way to go,” said Sciberras.

After paying for parts, Sciberras says he rarely hears from the shop, only receiving random updates about delays due to sourcing parts and other issues.

“I was patient, I waited and then about seven, eight months ago I said, ‘man, what’s the deal?’ He said, ‘well, my machinist quit on me, I’m having some issues’,” said Sciberras.

He picked up those parts and had them, worked on by a friend, but ultimately ended up taking them back top the shop.

“He said I’ll have your truck back together, you’ll have it back in a few weeks, maybe a month, so I said ‘okay.’ A month turned into two months, called him, ‘Oh man, I’m kind of busy, it’s going to be another couple of months,’ so here we are two years later for a brake job on my truck and no recourse,” said Sciberras.

KFOR stopped by Ok Wheel & Brake, the owner, Josh Hilton admitted the process is taking longer than expected.

“I’ll take responsibility for that, but there’s a lot of other factors going into that too. It’s not just because it’s not being touched or not, I mean, that’s not the case,” said Hilton.

He says modifying the brake system for this particular model has been a challenge and that he hasn’t heard from Sciberras in awhile.

“That’s why it’s shocking to see you, because I haven’t heard from him,” said Hilton.

Hilton says they hope to have the hubs back on the truck by next week.

“We’ll go from there, I’ll start plumbing the brake lines… but I would encourage him if he wants to know something, he needs to call me or come by or whatever,” said Hilton.

Sciberras says the last communication he has with the shop was four months ago and that he was told the same thing they would have the hubs back on by the next week.

“Even if I could just get my truck back, if he just puts it in a roller state where I could have a tow truck come get it, I’d be fine with it. I’d be willing to wash the thousand bucks I paid him, you know, just discount it as a wash and get my property back,” said Sciberras.

The shop says towing the truck is a possibility.

Sciberras says he would rather his truck sit in his own garage, rather than in a lot that’s outside.

He is also a mechanic himself and says he wishes he would’ve just did the breaks himself, but two years ago he was recovering from a brain surgery he had after retiring from the air force.

Sciberras says he tried calling the shop, but did not receive a response. He plans to swing by in-person.

KFOR will continue to follow the progress made on the classic truck.
