Sorry to hear. Hopefully you come across some parts or the whole car soon.

Thats a nice bird too. If you find him ya gotta throw him on the ground and tie him to the back of the car and take him for a nice run down the 1/4. POS's like him deserve that. 
If i lived in chicago id keep an eye out but im in PA. Who knows, maybe the scumbag will roll through here, in which case...hes getting a beatdown

We rent that house and garage. It has renters insurance but there is always some sort of bullshit with renters insurance. As for the car nothing yet has been seen or heard of.
We did find out that the car was pushed 2 blocks, because it noticed by a neighbor that thought they needed to jumpstart the car. Then they started it up and just took off, the neighbor said they didnt get a good description. Thats what happens when you have 70 yr old neighbors

Still nothing but there were some POlish thieves stealing high end sportscars around the chicago area and sending them to poland. They might have been in on this theft? They are putting them in shipping containers then sending them straight off to POland. These bastards might be part of the theft or not?

My company had to retrieve two truckloads of goods stolen from our warehouse after the police busted a warehouse. When the driver got there he said everything you could possibly want was in that place - Harleys, Camaros, Vettes, big screen TVs, etc. And dude, they were Polish mafia.

i dont see serious car thieves going after a mid 90's trans am or camaro's... maybe some hoodlums wanting a joy ride then strip it..
real thieves like american trucks, suv's, caddilacs, new camaros, chargers,challengers, mustangs, benz, acura's ,integras.. they dont **** with 15yr old stuff unless its 50's,60's early70's vintage stuff... and most of those get stripped and parted out within minutes..
they would consider a mid 90s camaro or ta junk and wouldnt waste their time..
i have witnessed a car theft in the suburbs of houston texas.. a box van pulled up to a fairly new mercedes, had the car stripped in under 10 mintues.. i **** you not.. 6 guys jumped out of the van with cordless tools, got the decklid, 4 doors, hood, seats, wheels tires, stereo and bumper covers.. left the car on cheap *** jackstands..
evidently the alarm was disabled because it never went off.
took the cops longer to get there than it took the thieves to strip it..
