I don't see the thieves selling it on Ebay or racing it locally. They'll probably part it out. What was the engine trans combo and what did it run?

I have no idea on the trans/engine combo but I guess the car turned in the mid 10's.

My connection is it's a Mustang and I'm in the Mustang community and it happened a mile from the house. I would like to feel if this happened to me others would help by posting. It's like the milk carton pix. If you saw the car and turned it into the police and the creeps were caught, you get a thousand dollars because you saw it on Stangnet. Would that be cool or what? The guy gets his car back because of an internet site.

so nobody knows the combo it had?? since its gonna be parted out he should post the parts since thats most likely how it will be found. i've seen the ad on craigslist and wondered why he never thought to list the parts hope he gets it though.

Btw he had to know the guys, because obviously they knew him and what he had, and that it was worth going through all that to get it

If you look on the craigslist ad it looks like the pictures show a sbc in it with bill mitchell valve covers and a single plane intake. I saw the add yesterday and tried to look again but cant find the listing? Maybe it was found and the owner removed it or maybe it just expired. 24kmach maybe you could swing by there and tell him our interest in getting this car returned and get some more info about what we should be lookin for?
