hey rob does that thing have a hurst t-handle shifter in it? If so, I think I might have seen it yesterday. There was 2 guys that had a T/A that looked just ****** like that almost identical. It was in the rolling meadows/arlington heights area, but I'm pretty sure it had good plates.

Man, this really sucks, I just got the Mallory 685 from you and am extremely happy with it and the fast shipping. I suggest everyone on the forum or that reads this post just spend 10 minutes every day or 2 and start looking at their local craigslist. I am in SW MI and will definitely be keeping an eye out.

Damn this sucks and I know from experience. My Z28 was stolen in Tucson, Arizona all though recovered 3/4 mile up the road. They stole my $600 Alpine dec while in that process completely demolishing my dash and steering column. They must of got spooked because they left my $1200 amp and my $500 subs....People need shot that are desperate enough to do something like this. Hell I got permission to shoot from the cop while I was still stationed in Arizona as long as they where on my property, lol! Hopefully all will work out for you and get a recovered car. Very Nice ride for sure!

I will keep a look out around the 60608 area in Chicago. You check the chitown board?

I have alot of time/money in my car, its not the money that I am totally worried about, it is the time making it my own. This is why the Chi is going to the *******:

http://cbs2chicago.com/local/gang.me...2.1892495.html

Quoted from their gang/Weis press conference:

"I condone everything anybody doing to provide for anybody to help feed the mouths that's hungry. But y'all chose the Link Card and then want to ban what we do with it," said Barrion Dupree El. "It ain't your business You gave it to us. Let us feed ours."

i'm running Lojack on my Camaro, its not cheap was $1000 back when i got it. I have no idea how well it works still havent activated it.

In my opinion full coverage insurance is the only guaranty. If the thieve wants the car they will get it one way or another.

Most people won't even get back the $$ they have in mods with how little these cars are worth now.

I don't have it on my Camaro yet, but on my modded 93 Vette I had an assured value guarantee price when I insured it with Haggerty that took into account all the mods on the car.
