Default May SUPER CHEVY Article

Has anyone seen the article in the May Super Chevy on some dude that had his new 68 Vette stolen 3 months after he got it, and they just recovered it and returned it to him? Take a look..............B

NO I HAVENT SEEN IT ANYWHERE ON THE FORUMS 1 BILLION TIMES, IN THE NEWS FOR FOUR WEEKS STRAIGHT, ON THE INTERNET FOR THE PAST SIX MONTHS OR ANYTHING? I HAVENT SEEN IT AT ALL????

lol do an advanced search on the topic and you will find a gazillion posts on the subject.

Something new to add though, GM Restoration Parts Division gave the guy $2500 dollars worth or parts for free. The whole time im thinking... a company the size of GM just gives this guy $2500 worth of parts for all the free publicity they are getting? CHEAPOS! Of couse I wouldnt have turned it down. On the other hand I guess the guy just got a nice chunk of change handed to him when they gave his car back so Fu&K him and let GM give us the parts. hahaha

Anyone see my coffee? I need my coffee. Where is the coffee?

Did you hear about the ship that sank on the way from Southampton to New York? The Titanic? It hit an iceberg 400 miles from the coast of Newfoundland. Looks like lots of casualties. I'll provide more updates as they come in.
