Matt Farah's Ferrari specistist "Donnie" arrested
Discussion
"On April 1, Donnie Callaway found himself booked in the Lower Buckeye Jail in Arizona’s Maricopa County on charges of theft, trafficking stolen property, forgery and fraud.
The 60-year-old mechanic had been arrested hours earlier after he allegedly attempted to sell a Ferrari Daytona and Ferrari 512BB to an Arizona collector who apparently had come to suspect that Callaway did not rightfully own the vehicles he was selling. The collector set up what people close to the matter described as a sting operation. The collector could not be reached for comment. The people close to the matter did not want to be identified so as not to affect potential future lawsuits, they said.
Callaway is being held on a $400,000 cash bond, according to the Maricopa Sheriff’s Office. An arraignment hearing is scheduled for April 17; a trial is scheduled for Aug. 14"
[i]There are also an ongoing lawsuits with a Belgian,filed on Aug. 11, 2023 by Arthur Teerlynck of Kuurne, Belgium, alleged unfair business practices, violations of California’s automotive repair act, breach of contract and fraud, among other allegations.
That lawsuit requests, among other things, restitution of a 1973 Ferrari Daytona valued at $950,000; a 1961 Maserati 3500 Spyder Vignale valued at $825,000; a 1986 Ferrari 328 valued at $100,000; a 1995 Rolls-Royce Flying Spur valued at $40,000; and various parts and titles. It seeks compensation for overcharges, plus fees and other damages, and a trial by jury.
“Plaintiff has paid over $1,465,989.00 to Defendant Callaway for brokerage" [/i]
So it would seem that Donnie has tried to sell Mr Teerlyncks Daytona which he is being sued for the $1.4mil in brokerage.
