roll back or tow truck and yer still screwed, not that its a bad idea to have something to keep the riff raff out but if they want it bad they will have it. i watched some kids walking around me car while i was at i local mcdonalds, they were trying to get in it. but i have shaved door handles, talk about some confused wannabe theves. i hit the panic think on my keyfob for the doors and they ran

my baby was almost stolen twice, and ever since it stays in a garage. i also will have the other door shaved some what soon (hopefully ) so they'll have to rip the top if they want it that bad, but by that time the infared laser that pics up on any movement in the car would trigger the alarm.

And i will install a cut off switch aswell. , but like someone has already said if they want it bad enough they'll tow it.

Hopefully its not chopped up already, hope your friend finds it.

Didn't see the thread posted yet..

Here is an update;

The car was definately NOT towed.. the gym doesn't tow cars, his boy saw someone trying to get into the car, but he thought it was Mike, and that he locked his keys in.

When he informed the police on sunday, they actually said they RAN THE PLATE OF HIS CAR ON BLACK ROCK TURNPIKE in fairfield but didn't pull it over because there was nothing on it. If he had reported it stolen that night he came back, the car would of been in his driveway 100% as it had left.... but he waited till morning to make sure it wasn't towed..

I drove around BPT in my car trying to look for it and saw some sketchy *** body shop stripping cars about 1 hour before superbowl on river street in BPT.. i told him about it because my boy thought he saw a cowl hood, but by the time mike got there he couldn't see anything. But I prolly made them a bit uncomfortable creeping past in a solid roller foxbody.



The car has AFR165's, Edlebrock Intake, 42 lbers, S-trim, and if someone see's it running for some reason, you know what a b-cam sounds like.

We have a good lead, but I've been asked by the owner not to reveal specifics just yet.. but it's not good at all.

I'm sorry to hear about that. I doubt they'd come by Virginia Beach, but I'll keep an eye out anyhow. Makes me worry about my car sometimes, even with the alarm...
