Nope, there was none.

This is terrible news for you, I'm sorry to hear of your loss ...I had a '69 Firebird stolen years back, and I was in shock for days after. 1 of a kind with gold imron paint......Even more shocked when they found it 3 months later COMPLETELY stripped and torched afterwards....

I hope you get your car back in good shape and the thieves who perpetuated this crime get sent to the slammer!

Lou

My first car was a 63 Stingray. Stolen out of my driveway at dusk.

It broke my heart!

Got it back though.

Best of luck on the recovery.

LoJack anyone?

I used to think LoJack was the save all, however if you live close to the border forget about it. My buddy had his truck stolen a couple month ago and LoJack tracked it into Mexico. They would neither go get the car nor disable it because it crossed an international border. The Mexican police wouldn't do anything about it either. We actually planned an operation to go steal it back, but Juarez is notorious for drug cartels so he just let the insurance company pay out.

well, since the US government will not police the border, I guess it is silly for us to think anyone will help get our stolen vehicles back from Mexico.
