Default Re: Stolen cars

Back in the 80's......... a lot of cars were stolen from in and around Englishtown. One of my best friends cars was stolen during that period. Tow vehicle/racecar and trailer all stolen in a heartbeat from the bar/restaurant just down the road that we stopped at occasionally after a race.

After a few weeks of digging around with 2 other racers who had cars taken......my friend found his car and I drove out with my trailer to pick it up.

The other racers were not so fortunate....both cars were destroyed as the thieves burned a few. They were street racing with some of them and local cops ignored it all..........A NY Strate run task force was on the case and very helpfull to my friend......

Queens, NY........His car was intact and had very little missing or damged. The truck-trailer and all his tools and spare stuff was history.

The thieves.....were using underage kids to do the actual thefts. They left the country once some "heat" was on them.......

I was worried for my friends safety and my own when we got the car...


I would highly recommend a LoJack device......as no one wants to have an experience like that.........
