Sounds like the usual rip off. In the late 60's a friend had a 56 Chevy stolen in North Carolina where he lived. About 5 months later it turns up in South Carolina. It still had the origional tag on it and had been in storage for several months. Cost him a bunch of money for storage to get it back.
Cop called, got me out of bed Mon. 11-23-09 1:30 AM. I took a cab to a shotgun 'hood where they were "processing" the car. Driver was charged with "Tampering ...".
Missing/Stolen: Gar. door opener front license frame spare/jack/lug celly phony $30 cash meds jumper cables
Damaged: Plastic seat control frame contents tossed, some in car, some in trunk
They even pulled the seat covers off the front seats (I dunno why).
I thanked the cop that had the Stanley gar. door opener, thanked the other cop whose brother needed a front license frame, and drove home.
Take me weeks to replace stuff, get car back to "normal" (if thats possible). But I was -lucky-: they coulda burned it, drove it into the river, give it to a relative in another town, etc etc.
