Larry (car owner) made an oral contract with Hubert (Autobody specialist) to restore a 1972 car. The car was in very bad condition. Rust covered the entire car. Many mice were living in the car. Hubert advised that he could not make the car “like new.” In fact, Hubert told Larry that “if I was you, I would take the car to a garbage dump.” Larry said, “Nonsense Hubert, you can do fantastic work. I trust that you can do a good job. I need a quality car to take to car shows. I’m trusting you to produce the results on this.” Hubert said “this is ridiculous, but I’ll do it.”
A month later, Hubert delivered the car to Larry. Larry was horrified. There were “waves” in the paint as a result of uneven surfaces on the body. Larry brought suit against Hubert for breach of the oral contract.
Who should win?
Larry | ||
Hubert | ||
Neither
