Default Someone stole my F1X!

as many of you knows I was about to finish my LSX and F1X build you can find the build here:
https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...lsx-build.html
everything is home, engine being shipped all the way to Kuwait and a lot of my parts are here preparing to get everything in the Z and get it back to live, well last Wednesday someone broke the driver side glass and took my head unit.. car was parked in front of the house and the head unit was in "box" at the trunk and covered with the trunk cover there is a lot of parts inside my vette but he took the head unit only. so that's will make my build project delaying more than I thud. but am going to complete it as soon as I can.

Damn that s*cks!
Maybe a link to this thread on Facebook would be of any help? There are plenty of Corvette related groups on FB.

Disgusting.

That **** happens all the time over here - thugs steal stuff to pawn for drug money & if they get caught, they get probation. At least in Kuwait the thief gets his hand chopped off if he gets caught.

Bad deal, hope your insurance covers it.

I agree with Curtis, somebody knew you had that in the car and wanted it particularly. At the same time, I wouldnt be surprised if its some local kid who thinks he's ****ing untouchable. TCNs usually know better.

Wong, if they get caught they get a .45 to the chest. Yes, like you I live in Spring, TX. Here in TX we have the right to use deadly force to protect property.

no one chopped off hands in Kuwait that's only in Saudia, here he may spend 4 to 6 months in jail and then go back to work and a year if they catch him while doing it.

That's exactly how it should be.

No judge, no jury, straight to execution!
