I had a caprice stolen 9 years ago, we found the car about 2 blocks away and the guy coming back to get it. :mad
my buddy was within a foot of grabbing the guy but he got away. cops showed up and said we were lucky we DIDN'T catch him. we might have killed him had we caught him.

sorry to hear it. Pray you get a fair settlement from the insurance company and it could turn out to be a blessing. :blueangel:

I found bits and pieces of the lock on the driveway where the passneger side was. Put them in a palstic bag gave it police but they said it won't help much. :mad

It sucks! We had a 1991 Prelude stolen back in February from a hospital parking lot. We haven't heard or seen a thing, the car is probably is several pieces scattered across TX. Since the bluebook at the time was ~ $1,600, we only had liability on the car. At least you have insurance.

Good luck! :thumbs:
