"I was shocked when I saw it, I could not recognize it," Novak said

The locally famous stretch limousine which had a TV, a sunroof and a sliding-door partition inside -- had been in the process of being prepared to be in a reality documentary.

The car was sold to the scrap yard by a Novak's mechanic, while Novak was out of the country.

Novak said he wants to take legal action against his former mechanic.
