Default Chop shop bust
Anyone catch the story on wwl tonight about the chop shop (storage facility) in marrero ? There is a 98 white firebird in the pic that is stripped and piles of parts. They have id the suspect and are looking for him.

I saw that too.

In a way it's a huge disadvantage that the LS engine is so popular because F-bodies have got to be in the top 3 most common cars stolen in the U.S. and they damn sure aren't getting stolen for the body parts.

Nah, I saw it posted on another F-body forum. Plus, I'm pretty proactive with my customers on training them how to not get their car stolen.

And, Of course I'm ready.
