Re: [Amc-list] Stolen AMX

[Frank Swygert <farna@xxxxxxx>]

Since it was stolen so fast I'm sure the police have already questioned the people at the garage where it was last worked on. No one had time to stake out Larry's home and watch for the car, so someone had to know it was coming there if indeed it was a pro job. Not much chance a pro thief just happened to be driving by! I'm not saying the garage staff had anything to do with it though. Could have, but more likely a pro thief knows the garages that do custom work was watching for cars, waiting to follow one home, or even stopping by and asking "who's is that". Innocent sounding enough -- a worker might not hesitate to answer that it's "some guy's over in the xxx part of town" or something if the person looks okay. Hope it does get recovered though!

Not high hopes for it coming back and if so, chanses are the kids(?) who took it probably joyrided it to death and will have to be complete goen thru..again, klike suspension, engine, trans, brakes and what not from whatever they did with it thinking it was a 4x4 or took it out like stolen Hertz Rent a AMX and raced it repeatedly where kids hang out on Saturday night. Who knows, someone might have taken it to cannibalize it although unlikely.
