He didn't have a buddy or a brother-in-law he could have sold the cars to for $100, then bought them back after the bankruptcy hearing?

Ex-friend (he effed me also) sold his plane to his mechanic for about 1/4th the value before his divorce, and was supposed to buy it back. Mechanic screwed him (well deserved) and sold it for a profit to someone else.

Had a feeling that might be the case.
