thats a good looking car, hope it gets returned, not trying to be a dick but classic cars are like little kids, you just can't leave them unattended because there is some low life scumbag looking for an easy score, if that car was equipped with lojack you could find it before it gets parted out, imagine the look on the guys face when the cops knock on the door and want to search the property !!! you can bet your backside my car WILL have some type of tracking system on it before it gets back on the streets, hope you guys find the car and are able to POUND the living crap out of the guy who has it, Steve

I would be physically ill if I lost that beauty!
I sure hope it finds it's way home safely and quickly. Lastly, I hope the scum that took it gets the maximum!
I'd say it takes very BIG brass ones to steal such a highly visible car like this. Since this is CA, I'd be camped at the Mexican border searching everybody going south!

...... Or the docks. There was a group here in Vancouver, B.C. years ago that were stealing high end cars. They drove them directly to a shipping company and into a container, soon to be loaded onto a ship bound for the middle east.
............. where would you hide a car like that in the U.S. ????????
