Sorry to hear about that, Thats one reason I am glad Mine parks in the garage

Seriously though... it is really scary. Even with full coverage, they cannot account for the 1000 hours I put into the car, or every single new bolt, and modification.

If I lost my car, I would lose half of my soul.

Grim Reaper

My condolences. The theft of someone's prized car is almost as heart wrenching as the death of a beloved pet. Hopefully it will turn up without much damage.

Unfortunately, auto theft is one of the fastest rising forms of crime. I know that when I bought my 1991 F-body (new), it was because it had VATS which made me buy my 1991 over earlier models. Today, I won't even buy a car unless it has a factory anti-theft device. They are not impossible to defeat by a "pro", it does stop your typical crack-head auto theif.

The russians only take hondas possibly a meth head running away

Blue1989RS

Thats gay. I'm in the Whatcom County but I'll keep my eyes open. I frequent the highway and know where the russians around here keep cars they steal. Light blue camaro's always catch my eye. Wish we could lop off limbs for stealing!

I'll keep my eyes peeled in Chico.

I'm so sorry, That is horrible to see someone's project taken away from them like that. I know it is more than just a car at that point. Ill keep my eyes open in Seattle.

tigercyberslash

ssean92

iTrader: (10)

That is the same way i would feel

Xophertony

GREAT!!!!!!!!! hopefully the two tires will be the only things that need fixing.

tigercyberslash

well guys no luck the baby we once knew is dead, ignition totly f@@ked!, i couldn't even start it, tired slashed, took my car seats and stuff and all little random things i had in the car, there were like 14 needles in the car,. stupid crack heads!, now i am stuck with a car, that i cant start, i think i might just list it maybe somebody wants it for 500$ take i like it is. , my plan now is to save and someday buy a another car. Thanks guys for the support.

Krazzycowgirl

did they take a screw driver to start it?
It may just be a ing switch that you many need.

As for seats I have a set of gray seats that are not in the best of shape but you can have them. I may have a set of wheels that I will allow you to have.

Heck Shot me a email if you want any of this stuff. We may be able to help you get the car back on the road.

That sucks man! I'd be pissed!

bigdaddyvu

Did they catch the guy???

tigercyberslash

Nope they found it abandoned , if anyone wants pics i took some while i was looking at her today, so email me if your interested in the car and want to see the car at happygoturtle@yahoo.com,
----------

No they broke the left side of the steering column, dunno how they started it, i tried for a hour and i could not get it to start. the key was able to go in but it did not catch to anything. The towing guy said looks like they pushed back the ignition bar? he tried but no luck. lights and stuff still come on the car, i wish i could get it started to see if its worth towing to my house. I got a small spare in the trunk, 2 tires would be really helpful, the rims on it are still nice, little bit of curb bite, too bad for my tires there were nice tires, cost me 100$ a piece.

NHRA427

How did they steal it with the vats system? That sucks. To bad Im so far away. I have all the parts you need to get it back together.

It's so terrible that people do that sort of thing and get away with it...

I hope you can get your car fixed easily/cheaply, sounds like all you need is some seats, tires, and a new column. If you really don't think it's worth fixing, I might be interested in it as a parts car... I'll shoot you an email.

You and TGO buddies --> <-- Stupid druggies

Raiden

Sorry to hear of your loss! I too live in tacoma, and I can not wait to move away from this arm pit! If your interested in a primo Z, supercharged, new engine/tranny, I may be selling mine. My wife and I are moving between Lacey and Yelm and we may be getting some horses = I may need to purchase a truck capable of hauling a horse trailor. So, I might need to sell my Z.

I really wish I would have found the ai#(*$*'s who stole your car! I would have beat them an inch from their useless lives!

RSFreak

Another Tacoma resident here. I've had several of my Camaros broken into over the years but none stolen. My wife's '94 Camaro was stolen from her work in Pacific a few years ago. When we got it back it had drug paraphenalia in it too. I had to get it completely detailed before she would drive it again!

Grim Reaper

Sorry to hear that your car was left in bad shape. I hope you don't have any serious mechanical problems like a f'd engine, tranny or rear-end.

However, soon all those theiving IV/crack-smoking drug users will be dead (due to AIDS) and the crime will stop.

Krazzycowgirl

We had our 85 SE Firebird broken in to when we lived off of Sales street in Tacoma, shortly after that that 4th of july massacure at the bar down the road. After that we moved out of Tacoma & moved back home to Yelm.

klause83z28

I will be on the lookout. I realise I don't live in the area, but you never know. I have had a car stolen and I know what it feels like. If I see anything I will let you know.

Krazzycowgirl

the car was found trashed. read up a few post

tigercyberslash

Hello, yes my car is toast, im looking to sell it for 500-700 or whatever i can get for it, put it towards a new one. I am looking to buy a Camaro, if you are willing to work out Payments with a down payment. If you are selling a car and are in the Tacoma area, please email me what you have and how much you want and all that good stuff. Thanks guys for the support, but no worries i wont let this experience ruin the joy of Camaro's, But believe me i am moving out of Tacoma soon, My baby's soul shall prosper You guys rock!

RSFreak

Dude, Raiden's Camaro is one Bad@ss ****! It would be the last Camaro you would ever need to own and you'd need to keep it in a garage!!! I had the privilidge of seeing this beast run at SIR a few years ago. I think you were running 12s, right Craig?!

Raiden

Well, I"m asking 12500 for it. I'm about to put it into the auto trader as my wife and I are preparing to put our house on the market next month. I've 5K on a new engine with eagle 4340 internals, I had a guy build my 700r4 exactly like a probuilt automatic tranny with all roller bearings. AFR 190 heads, paxton sn 2000m supercharger, plus instructions to rebuild the supercharger, custom kit, sub frame connectors, lca's, panhard rod, Elibach pro springs - 1 inch lower, fast as hell and solid. I hate to sell her, but my daughter wants a horse or two. My wife and I are getting 5 acers down on Lake St. Clare so I may be getting a heavy duty truck that can pull a horse trailer. Kind of makes me sick, the thought of selling my baby OH YEA, I also have a ford 9 inch in my back yard that is waiting to be fab-ed to fit my Z that will go with my car. And the tuning software

John, thanks for the nice words. Hope all is well with you and your family. One of these times I will make a gathering. Just too much going on the past 3 years....wow.

tigercyberslash

Sounds like a sweet Camaro, nice mods, i would love to see a picture if possibly u can email me some. 12.5 is around what i was thinking on spending. I would like to make a deal of some kind. How much are you looking down? 2k? email me, i would like to talk to you more about your baby, and you can be sure i would take great care of her, me and my wife are already moving into a nice apartment with garages which is a really big plus. Shoot me a email when you have time at happygoturtle@yahoo.com Thanks for the quick reply , look forward to speaking to you more.

Raiden

I think there are a few pic's of the thridgen gathering @ SIR a few years back that someone has hanging around??? I can't really find any pics and I've been super busy with work and stuff. I will try and post pics in the next few weeks. You can always give me a call on my cell 253-310-5485. Craig

Xophertony

i have a 92 steering column you can have for free. i have a set of four wheels WITH tires. cooper cobras 50% tread left atleast. i'd sell em to you for 300 obo. i will even DELIVER them, and i bet $$ i can get that car started as well. the ignition bar = one of the rods on the bottom of the steering column. easy way to "hotwire" a car. the key moves the rod, the rod moves the ignition swith. if you move the switch W/O the key the car fires right up. you don't even have to break the column, you only need the lower hush pannel removed. all you need to do is get under there and move the switch again and it will fire right up.

the switch/rod are on the top of the steering column, reach up there and you should feel the rod, probably WAY out of where it is supposed to be.

what are you doing Monday, i could drive up there and deliver wheels/steering column and help you move the car. my mom lives in castle rock, so i am up near that area alot anyway. let me know if you would like any of the help i have offered. PM me i don't get on TGO too much anymore.

EDIT* if you don't want to buy the wheels i would still be happy to lend them to you for an hour so we can get your car home.

EDIT** good god! Tacoma is 2hrs and 30 minutes away. offer still stands but you will owe me lunch

RSFreak

Tony, you didn't know how far away Tacoma was?!?!

Hey, if you come up we can have a Tacoma mini-gathering with me, Ian, TJ, aaron_sk, maybe Don, maybe Al, and a couple of the other locals!

Krazzycowgirl

believe it or not, not alot of people know where Tacoma is lol, if it wasnt in my back yard I wouldnt know.


Hey Freak you coming on monthers day?

RSFreak

I'll probably be hanging out with my mom oddly enough!

Krazzycowgirl

bring her along, Free food

RSFreak

We'll see...

Krazzycowgirl

lol Glad to see that you are coming to the All Chevy show in july, Scott Settlemire is coming again this year & he is bringing two cars with him (we are hopping the new Camaro but I guess we will find out the day of show.)

BigBoi4Lyph

Sorry to hear about the car. If you are still trying to sell it. i might be interested i need a parts car for my 89 iroc. i need body pannels and other little things. thanks.

84noname

this is silly, why would you get rid of your car over this??? if the didnt kill the motor (or trans) then its all fixable!!!! for way less than a differant car. u want to dump a bunch of money on a car but you cant afford to fix this??? im confused, hot wire it or find some one who can, get some tires from pull a part where u live, the are like 12.50 each, they dont even have to be the right size just the right bolt pattern. not to be an azz but if u cant afford to fix this u sure cant afford a new car of any kind unless its free. the people who stole it started it, so can u, also is the starter out maybe?
this really sucks and i know ur frusterated but i dont think youre thinking staight unless u know something youre not saying like the motor is toast, even have it towed to a shop and fixed is cheaper than another maro. i found my bird for 100 running but that was very rare. good luck, and man why is t town so messed up. all them tweekers up there fricken meth heads. get outa t town and come up north, everett isnt bad as long as u dont own a honda
this is why i refuse to live in apartment complexs, everytime i have i have had my cars busted into or attempted to be stolen. monroe or snohomish is cool if u can find a house for rent. i live in a crappy place just so i can have my cars behind a gate, i literally live in a fancy work shed i have a welder, and a tranny, some heads and stuff in my kitchen but its fine with me.
oh and seats cost 12.50 at pull a part, u can fit other gm seats in there, anything for a temp fix

tigercyberslash

yeah trust me it wasn't worth fixin..and having to take out of the tow yard for $1000...anyway I got a new one a few months ago that is SO much better and has a 350 instead, and I have moved out of Tacoma :-)

84noname

i figured it was related to tow yard fees. i dont get how tow yardsget away with it, they are as criminal as the theives!. a theft recovery shouldnt ding the owner! yeah sucks glad you got a better car. where did you move to?
