I would not go there without the police, just to ensure that this is documented if it should go through the courts. If nick has the title and a noterized letter from you authorizing him as your agent for removal of said vehicle. Do you have proof of payment that all work is paid? This is all that should be needed, and the officer will agree and tell the shop owner to release the vehicle. All officers and police dept. are different, but i hope they don't take the easy way out and say it is a civil matter for the courts. I would also notify the police ahead of time and explain the whole situation.
