Hi all...We are once again the proud owners of an '84 LX Hatchback 5.0L 5spd. We bought her from her original owners in '92 had her until '98 ( kept her original and in mint condition ...sadly decided to sell her in May of '98) Put her on my uncles car lot .. two young guys took her for a test drive on Friday afternoon and the police figure they made keys for her on their test drive ) On Sunday morning she was GONE! His insurance was a 5000 deductible and wouldn't cover it ( we had taken our insurance off her while she was sitting on his lot) .. We had no car and no cash! Police checked intot he guys who had her for a drive but of course they "didn't take the car"
GOOD NEWS she was recovered June 22nd, 2006... the guy who had the car had her towed to a Mida's garage because he put the clutch out of her...the mechanic noticed she had no VIN in the window and alerted police).. she was mint when stolen and for 22 years old and missing for 8 yrs and 1 month she is still in decent shape) I recieved a call from a police dept 3 hours from here asking if I had a car stolen .. I said yeah 8 yrs ago, I had a mustang stolen.. the officer says " well you won't believe me but we recovered your car" I said yeah but what kind of shape is it in now? He said " for being 22 yrs old it isn't in bad shape" After the RCMP auto theft unit was finished with it and confirmed the original VIN (on the unibody and the firewall) we were allowed to take her home July 2nd/06 .. we arrived at their impound ....showed proof of original ownership and towed her home...We went right to work at getting her cleaned up and running fine... put her on the road July 13th/06.. i know she was MEANT TO BE MINE! .. She was stolen before she could be sold and found her way back to me after 8 yrs... you can judge for yourself but I think its a damn original story! here is a link to a few pics of her ... http://www.mustangforums.com/photose...filter=&page=1
