WARNING! BEWARE OF CamaroWorld/Tracy Fields

[SilverLS6]

I hate to hear about things like this. Looks like that website is down. Google "Tracy Fields Camaro" and this is the first hit you get Ripoff Report. Sounds like you and he should team up on this.

If you have been victimized by Tracy Fields, please call me at 214/476-4792. I am in contact with the Dallas County DA's office and they need the names of everyone he has stolen money and property from.

I gave Tracy Fields my 1969 Chevrolet Camaro in July 2006 to repaint the car, add an A/C, rally wheels, install disk brakes and few other items. At the time, the car ran well, but had an inferior paint job. He said that the entire job would take about 6 weeks and I paid him $5,000 down (based on his total estimate of $10,000). Time went by and no updates were forthcoming from Tracy. In December 2006, I discovered that he had moved from his Richardson location to the Garland location - without notifying me. I rushed over to the new location and discovered that after $5,000 and 5 months he had succeeded in tearing the car down and had begun painting it the wrong color. He repeatedly asked for the rest of the money so that he 'could finish the job'. On the way back from Camaro World, another customer flagged me down and warned me not to give Tracy another dime. He told me that he was being sued by many customers and had recently been arrested. I went back to Camaro World and told Tracy that I wasn't going to pay him any more money. I asked him to put the car back together and we would make sure that he had done $5,000 of work. Of course, Tracy had no motivation to do anything else on my car. Finally, out of desperation, I gave him another $2,400 to finish up. Over the past few months, he has emailed me pictures showing a beautifully restored Camaro and assured me that my car was almost finished. Last week, I went down there and sure enough, Camaro World was shuttered, all of the cars were gone and there was no sign of Tracy. I called the Garland police. Tracy showed up and said that my car was down the street, 'being painted'. This is of course, after he had told me that the painting was done a year ago. I walked down to another auto shop and there was my car, completely stripped - no interior, no seats, no headlights, and no tailights. Thank God, he didn't steal the engine too. To add insult to injury, the other mechanic won't return what is left of my car because Tracy never paid him $4,000 for the paint work that was done a year ago. So, I paid this criminal $7,400 and he destroyed a $20,000 car.

Again, call me at 214/476-4792 if you were victimized by Tracy Fields.

When I hear stories like this, I can't understand why this
guy isn't pushing up daiseys. People must have more control
than I give them credit for...

I know I'd be locked up by now if this happened to me.

It kind of scares the crap out of you - doesn't it?

Roy, I believe you need to explain that you are posting on behalf of someone else or at least I hope so. Your profile list your occupation as an owner of an Auto Restoration Business.

I have an friend,(not close) that got taken there for over 20K. It was his decision to go there and we are still friends. He is not real computer savey, I told him I would put the letter from the other guy on there and he said he would probably contact him so I pasted it. I met Tracy 15 years ago before he started doing this, don't have anything against him just hate seeing people get taken over and over. I don't need to say anything bad and I did not say anything bad, Tracy needs no help from me. Simple as that.

If I really needed to explain, the link was there anyway right above it.

Thank you very much. You're all gentlemen. I'll definitely be calling Phillip later today. Thanks again and again.

Sorry to bump such a lousy thread, but I wanted to pass along this guy's current eBay username (my69z28302) that he is actively selling parts under. I want to be careful to note that I have no proof that he is selling stolen items on eBay, but that deduction would say he has some SOME stolen parts before based on other available info.

Some people might find some items of theirs in his auctions, who knows. I would not have found out about this guy's select past unless he shipped me damaged goods and refused to reply to my messages. I know my problems with him are nothing compared to others, but maybe this info will help others.

Good luck.

To all that read this,
My name is 2LT Tracy Fields Jr. I am currently serving in Iraq. The above postings are about my father, Tracy Fields Sr. They posting are all true and you are dealing with a criminal who as stolen money not only from you but his family as well. He has runied the credit of my sister and put her on the hook for $20,000. I am writing as an advicate for those who have been ripped off by him. Along with another person who was ripped off by him are trying to putogether a list of every body who has been taken by this guy. Our hope is to see him punished leagally. If you have information that we could use to help build the case please email me at [email protected] If you live out side of the state of TX is is even more important that that you contact me. Building a federal case aginst him will be that much easier. I am sorry if you have been taken by my father but not acting is the worst thing you can do.
Respectfully,
Tracy Fields Jr.
