Default Re: Info Needed on Drager's Classics, Seattle WA

Drager's has been around and dealing with cars for at least the 13 years I've been in Seattle. Don't plan on just dropping by, as he's somehow convinced the state dealer overseers to allow him to be basically appointment-only. That's not evil, its just a tough thing to pull off, as they want dealers to be open 5 8hr days per week, and have their records on-site ready for inspection.

Jerry Drager is the owner, and he deals mostly with street rods and cars and pickups from the 30s to the 50s. He's on the up-and-up from everything I've heard, but he doesn't make his living from cars. He has valuable real estate holdings which provide him with cash to buy cars and places to store them. This also gives him the ability to sell on his terms, so he doesn't sell things unless he feels like it. He typically asks all the money and usually waits until he gets it. That said, he doesn't deal in crap and lie about it, like say, um, "Crocker's Cuties" (name changed but victims will know!).
