So here's the story....it's long and detail oriented so check out now if you don't want to read it all.

The guy who does my engines for the shop works out in the Bethelehem area of PA. Builds sprint cars motors for a living. I took the engine for the 66 Mustang I'm doing to him 3 months ago today. Just for a stock rebuild...should have been 3-4 weeks tops. Then the fun began. First he accidently ordered the wrong pistons. Then he started assembling the shortblock and fell sick with pneumonia. That knocked him out for about 2-3 weeks. Then he finished the shortblock and realized they sent him the wrong lifters so we wait for them. He's sick again....trouble breathing, tired, etc. Lifters show up. Finally about 3 weeks ago he starts putting the heads on. While he's putting the one on, the other one on the bench tips over and bends 3 valves. New valves arrive a few days later...wrong size....close but have to be cut. Finally they get cut. He gets REALLY sick. In the hospital 3 times a day for monitoring of his bloodpressure. Now let me give you a little background....this guy is 46 weights probably close to 400lbs and has already had 1 heart attack....he's a timebomb waiting to go off, but he builds great engines. Well I got him on his cell yesterday and he was in the hospital with a bloodpressure of 200 over 90....they wanted to admit him and said he could have a stroke but he wanted to leave. He told me his son was supposed to let someone else into his shop last night to finish my engine and then the son would call me. Well I got no call. I tried calling him honestly about 50 times today with no answer. I even went as far as to call the hospital out by him to see if they had him listed as a patient and they don't. So now I have no idea how to get my engine back because he's the only one who works at the shop and I only have his shop and cell numbers so I can't even call his house and hope his son is there. How do I get my engine back??
These are the few options I see and frankly I don't like any of them:
1. Wait it out and see if he calls me, could happen or he honestly could have died and I wouldn't know it.
2. Try to get in touch with a lawyer and get a court order to have the shop opened by the Sheriff and get my stuff out. Very difficult, I already checked with a lawyer friend of mine.
3. Go there and break in and take it back, running the risk of being arrested, going to jail, etc.

I'm open to any and all suggestions.
