1969 Dodge Charger

i purchased this vehicle from dougredwood or otherwise known as Thron Restorations, and its a complete peice of junk. i paid him in full of $39,000 and waited for several momths for its completion or as he put it- a complete restoration to an exact replica of the car in the 2005 movie. during this time when i asked to see vehicle and/or speak with his mechanic numerous times and always i was denied. When i was finally called that it was done and to come pick it up- it was over 4 hours away from my home. i was to meet him in a public parking lot- it seemed strange he never was at the same location everytime we talk, arcata, southern calif, galt, etc. so he took me to see the car, of course it was parked on dirt and impossible to see underneath, i loaded it up on trailer and was able to see a few things that concerned me but i needed to rack it up and inspect. took vehicle home on trailer, when i got home there was trans fluid all over my trailer, apparently the trans dipstick tube wasnt installed right, so i slid under vehcile in my garage, where i found how much he was trying to hide from me, the floor was completely rotted out, speedo cable wasnt even hooked up, my rebiult engine we agreed on was a used peice of crap. i immediately called him, he stated he didnt have any money, i took vehicle to east bay muscle car where i got an estimate just to get this vehicle road worthy, $10,249.00. the owner of east bay muscle cars and i both have talked to doug thron and he no longer taked my phone calls or responds to emails, he did leave me a voice mail stating that he wanted to settle for a $1000.00 and sign a waiver to not let the public know about this- i refused!! BEWARE WHEN DEALING WITH THIS GUY!!!!

Dodge Chargers are speedy cars that look cool and drink gas apleanty. Not for the hands off person.

it was the item i wanted. i won the auction. i met all the proper criteria. the seller would not sell it to me. he sold it to others. wasted my time.

I have bought and sold a few 1969 Dodge Chargers on Ebay in the past. I always try to get a phone number to talk to someone about the car I am looking to buy. You have to ask question. If you don't then you get what you pay for. I have found that most people on Ebay selling there Charger, will make it sound like gold, when it's really coal. This last Charger I bought was not what I was told it was. I asked how it ran, they told me it ran great. I had to work on it just so I could drive it. I asked about the brakes. I was told they were great, I had to buy a master cyl, just so it would stop. I asked about any rust problems. I was told that the car had all rust problems repaired, except for the truck, they said that was more of a patch. The whole car was patch. The old rust was not cut out and patches were just laid over the old. The interior was nice with a couple of small repairs needed. I was told it was a new paint job. In person it looks like a kid did it. the paint had alot of trash in in. I could go on about the car. I was also promised alot of extra parts. I went to meet them half way when I picked up the car. I was told they forgot the parts but they would mail them to me. I was mailed a couple of old ratty parts, with only one good side marker. They did pay for part of the trim in cash, only because they did promise me that they had good trim. all the trim they sent was trash. I had decided to buy this car because they had talked so nicely and had seemed so trusting. Bottom line. You need to ask questions, but if you are told something, you need to ask them if they will stand behind what they say. And DO NOT believe any sob story's. Most of them are problably a lie. If you are buying a project car, then expect that what you see is what you get. But if you are buying what you think is a nice car, then ask questions, and if you don't know what to ask, find someone who does. It's alot cheeper to pay for someone to check the car out for you so you don't get burned, then to pay a high prices for a rusted car that does not run nice. If you don't know where to find someone to help you, then look on Ebay and ask someone near the area where you are looking to buy, and look at there feedback, and if it's 100%, then most likely you can trust them to help. Offer some money for help. Then they will be more likely to go out of there way to help. I hope you find this infomation helpful. Tom, - toms69rt@yahoo.com
