1970 Maverick STOLEN

John, I copied and pasted this on my Facebook page and never even noticed the incorrect date until Dan Starnes questioned it.

 

Oh wow that sucks. I hope it turns up. I remember buying a parts car off you when that Mav was blue wih ghost flames.

 

put it on the hamb

 

I did the same last night, and they deleted it.

 

See if you can spot any City CCTV cameras, or Business CCVT cameras that are on routes that lead away from where it was stolen.

Maybe you will get lucky, and find some clues that way.

It takes a lowlife to steal from others.

john i will post it on the car club website that i belong to here in the stl and ask around at the car show tonight sorry to hear that !a guy in my club 68 charger they tryed to steal it but could not get it started so they trashed it and closed the door for him to fined it was a gross site this happend in imperial about 3 months ago grabber/74

 

make sure to get pics of it to any and all scrap and recycle yards.If theyre dumd enough to steel it, maybe theyll be dumb enough to try to get money out of what they cant use! hope you find your car safe and in good condition!!!An add in local papers with pics with a small reward of any kind will help you maybe.

 

Sorry to hear that. I hate low lifes that steal. Hope you are able to find it in one piece & it was just a joy ride...

 

sorry to hear about your car, i cant imagine what you are going through! hopfully things work out and the car is returned and who ever was behind the theft is caught

 

You got it, eyes in Colorado. Can you post some pics or information on some of the higher end parts? That way if they show up on Craigs or Ebay you have eyes out there.

 

I feel like a fool typing in a rush to get all the info out. My date was wrong it was August 19, 2011 We have it posted everywhere we could think of and with everyones help it is out there. It is just a matter of time before it is found one way or another.
As far as camera around the area it is slightly remote to the thieves advantage I guess.
Thanks for looking everyone John

 

Contact info?

John-
I posted it on a site and sent out an e-mail. Can you post a phone number for you to attach to posts so they can contact you directly
if anyone sees anything?

Good luck finding it.

Seth

the dash pad is signed by a local artist that did the pin=striping on the flames.

I really want to THANK EVERYONE for all their help and support, I really thought I would have gotten a call from the police saying they found it burned or wrecked. That leads me to think it is being stripped possible.

The whole story is this. My shop is 1 mile from my home it is secluded with a cable gate and my in-laws live close to see it when they leave and enter their drive. I last was at my shop on Wed. leaving at 7:30 pm. On Friday I decided I would blow out the cob webs and bring it to a local cruise in for some fun. When I got to my cable gate I recognized my cable was locked different but did not think more about it. I unlocked it and drove to my shop to see the garage door open and the car was gone. I do't know how to describe it but I thought someone (family) had played a trick on me and pulled it behind my shop for a joke ( which they would never do in hind sight) As I looked around the shop the hammer hit my head and I realized my car was stolen. I immediately call the police and there was a number of items they were able to get finger prints from to get my door open and literally drive my car away.
Get this though they unlocked my gate because I left the key on a nail by the gate (honesty and thinking everyone is good) They locked it when they left.(that was nice) THey drove it away in broad day-light, They have a bigger set og nuts then the bull in the adjoining cow field.
My in-laws had left at 3:00 pm and seen the door was shut so it happened between 3:00-7:30 pm.
If I only would not have taken a short nap and gotten my car like I was going to right after work I would surely still have it...... Now it is a long waiting game.
