Default Car stolen!!!

Last night between 11:30PM - 6:00AM this morning, someone cut the lock on the gate to my shop, and stole my race car and trailer. The car is a 90 Camaro two-tone gray on top, red on bottom. Signs say Carl's Transmissions on the doors and First Collision on the rear glass. The trailer is a 14' car hauler silver in color with a chrome box on the tongue and a winch mounted on the front. Trailer Man stickers are on the side of the tongue. Any information leading to the capture of the criminals and/or the return of the property will be greatly appreciated and rewarded.

Pictures of the car can be seen at www.fquick.com/TXMaro

Please contact me @ 832-514-0136 if you have any information. Keep an eye out for 3rd gen parts.. fiberglass front end and 5" cowl hood, 9" rear w/ Strange alum. center chunk w/ 4.86s, Summit star wheels, 15x10 and 15x4 with M/T slicks and generic front runners or a 383 stroker engine with a Steve Taylor 950 carb are parts to look for.

Thank you.

Car was located in Baytown, SE Houston area.

Thats a horrible feeling to have something like a car stolen...I had a mustang that I loved to drive stolen out of my drive way in March...was just sick about it!

It worked out better cause I upgraded to a 383ci LT1

Good Luck!

Thanks for everybody's support. We're talking to insurance company and they may cover it since the car was mine and it was at my grandpa's shop. They may cover as like a customers car. I've got to dig up some receipts when I get back to town.
