2006 Dodge Magnum

I was born in Wilmington Delaware and moved to West Virginia when I was 13. I met my wife in high school and we got married after 6 years in college. We moved to South Carolina shortly after that. After 25 years in retail management, I recently changed jobs and am now the North American Parts Manager for Atlas Copco.

What or who got you interested in cars?

I got into cars as a way to be creative. I started building cars at 14, helping my friends with stereo installation and lowering cars. There wasn't much else to do in WV. 

Why this Car?

I wanted air conditioning. When I moved to SC, I had a 91 accord that was way too custom to daily drive. I was driving by a dealership and saw this car, so I bought it new in 06 because it had A/C and I saw potential.

Why did you build this Car?

It is different, you see a ton of 300's, Chargers, and Challengers but very few Magnums. It has nice lines and after I bagged it, it looks so much better on the ground.

What does it feel like owning and driving your car?

I built the car for myself. I was changing the colour, painting wheels, and redoing the interior every other year. All my cars end up green. It is fun to drive the car, I like sharing tips with others and telling them what is done to the car. I like being the "go-to guy" for suggestions on people's cars and trucks, I guess I did something right to have all these people asking for advice.

Advice/Tips

Make sure the cat has been maintained properly. I have seen people with big ideas for a custom car that can't do it because they have to spend money on repairs. Since they don't make these anymore, you have to be creative and use Charger and 300 parts.

What do you think makes your car Unique?

All the mods aren't crazy, more tastefully done than some crazy show car. You have to look for some of the customs. I try to make it look custom but be functional. I can take it to a show or the grocery store, and it fit in either place.

Did you do the work yourself or did someone help?

Our whole club, CHOZEN, helps each other out. We push each other to be better. Chad Martin did the painting on the wheels, doors, and speaker box. Christian Blount helping with anything I ask or need an extra hand with. My very understanding wife Lee Ann and my son Solomon for keeping me company in the garage.

Future plans?

I will be buried in this car, but there are always ideas for the future. I would like to candy paint the whole car green in the near future. Also, a 392 swap and 8-speed auto may be in the future.

Groups/Clubs

CHOZEN, we are back! Been a member since 2003, so many great people in the club. Bonus that we all drive the nicest vehicles around and love to eat, so you can catch us posted up at a local restaurant.

What has the scene done for you?

We are all like-minded, mostly older guys, and love showing off. We like reaching the younger people in the car community and helping them with their builds and being role models for them. We keep our standards high and don't mind teaching others what we have learned over the years.
