The Automobiles
In the beginning, Mr. Rangos provided petitioner with one of
his company's automobiles.1 From 1975 to 1983, Mr. Rangos failed
to provide petitioner with an automobile. Petitioner sued Mr.
Rangos as a result of his breach of Paragraph 12 of the Agreement.
In January 1983, the court ordered Mr. Rangos to pay petitioner the
January 1975 list cost of a 1975 Cadillac Eldorado, the January
1978 list price cost of a 1978 Cadillac Eldorado, less the January
1978 blue book value of 1975 Cadillac Eldorado, and the January
1981 list cost of a 1981 Cadillac Eldorado, less the January 1,
1981 blue book value of a 1978 Cadillac Eldorado. Thereafter, Mr.
Rangos provided petitioner with a new automobile every 3 years.
Mr. Rangos dictated the form of the transaction used to
provide the 1991 and 1994 vehicles. In this respect, petitioner
had to engage in extended negotiations with various persons in Mr.
Rangos' company (Chambers Development Co.) and get the approval of
Chamber Development Co.'s purchasing department before she obtained
either the 1991 or 1994 automobiles.
On or about June 5, 1991, petitioner selected a 1991 2-door
Cadillac DeVille (Vehicle No. 1). It was less expensive than the
1 Because petitioner "basically wanted to get out of
[her] marriage [with Mr. Rangos] and just walk away from that
situation", petitioner preferred that Mr. Rangos give her an
automobile and she would have managed to provide herself with an
automobile thereafter. Mr. Rangos preferred that petitioner use
one of his company's automobiles.
