A Santa Rosa mechanic who bilked elderly victims of over $350,000 was sentenced to nine years in prison on Monday. Suede Lee Barganski operated RadRods of Norcal, a classic car repair business, and took advantage of his trusting customers. He promised to repair their classic cars but often abandoned the vehicles in disrepair. Barganski fled California to avoid arrest but was eventually extradited back and sentenced for his crimes.
