Man! What a meltdown over there! I had to keep re-loading the page....Geez!
What exactly happened at Mecum?
Well couldn’t get through to read it but found a few posts that summarize it:
I think he went on moparts to "clear" his name after this auction "mishap". The Pandora's Box he opened was all the people coming out that he's interacted with in the past (including me ). We all know moparts, Charger Board, etc. are a place of discussion, learning and sharing... He blatantly started with:
"Today is Monday February 6, 2012.
I am not here to give anyone information that I would normally charge a consultation for.
I am only here to "clean the toilet" as to identify and/or expose those people who cannot stand someone like me who is trying my best to police the Mopar hobby."
The only reason he's doing this is to defend his reputation, which is heavily tarnished. Doing this, he's hoping to maintain the value of his business and it's potential earnings. What he did at the auction deserves applause and thanks. If he's wishing to "police" the hobby, that's fine too " Captain Mopar!!!!! "... But, the meat and potatoes of people's grievances is his past business practices..
“Well, i'm one of the fools who have read every post . What I don't understand is why all the people who were allegedly scammed by GG( I have no reason to believe they wern't) have taken some kind of legal action . A class action law suit should /could not be that hard to file .
as for the mecum auction scene and I was not there, but according to a poster this Hemi cuda came up or was going up as the real deal with a 318 fender tag and vin plate. GG pointed it out to the buyer as the car having some issues and the buyer wanted his money back. I believ thats the jist of what happened . I have no way of knowing if this is truth or here say .
There's no doubt about it that there are some quite irate Moparites over at moparts and they are not mincing their as to what they are calling GG .
Ahh I thought it had a bogus vin and tag stating it was a hemi built at a plant that didn't produce any hemis. Never would have thought in this day and age someone would try to pass off a car with 318 tags as the real deal on stage in a public auction. Wow
And that may very well be the issue ( about the plant) but there may have been that there were only 318 cars built at this plant . I'm sure Dana Mecum does not want to get a name for selling bogus cars if in fact that was the case. he's probably under extreme pressure with millions on the line , hence the blow up.”
