Abandoned car!!

[aikmanmosquito]

I've mentioned this subject on these forums before, but I really need someone who is familiar with Scottish law to help me here as I'm at the end of my patience!
To cut a long story short a P**s taking barsteward left a car with me to have work done. He stopped giving me any money in 2006, and since then I've had to spend my own money on the car. I stopped working on it 2 years ago and demanded he take it away and square me up, since then he has repeatedly strung me along. Now car is parked on my private driveway and is a total inconvenience.
Since November last year I have had to become threatening to him and I have been given over a dozen dates when he planned on collecting the car and all have been and gone. He lives abroad, had a property in Glasgow which he sold a couple of years ago and has family in the midlands.
Now I am completely at the end of my patience with him, and want to know am I entitled to either sell his car to get what I am owed and more importantly rid of it, or can I dismantle it for spares to get same result! I cannot get anything done on my own property as this car is a non runner and it is driving me mad that he clearly doesn't give a damn and fully expects the car to stay here for as long as he chooses.

He owes me about a grand! and the car is a Y reg Capri 2.8, unfinished restoration project.

I'd really like my money back, otherwise i'd have disposed of the car long ago! Just wondering if I break it up, take off the parts I have fitted with my own money, and get rid of the rest, where would I stand with regards to the law.
