It sounds as if you may have a case, but an attorney would need to know more details about the arrangement. Also, it is important to know who had title to the vehicle and what understanding the friends had about the improvements made to the car. It may be possible to recover money from the friend if he sold the car without permission.

I would be happy to speak with you in greater detail if you are interested.
