Mike-the Camaro.I would think the guy who invested 10,000 grand in it is just out of luck.It's not his to begin with.His issue is with who he brought it from and not the rightful owner.

This is the primary reason we aren't taking our cars to out of town events anymore, and why we don't stay in hotels if we do. It is happening with such regularity you just can't take the chance.

And, if caught, the thieves get NOTHING ! There was a TV show last week where a police dept in Miami and an investigative journalist rigged a Blazer with audio and video equipment and an undercover cop posed as a guy trying to have his car "stolen" for insurance fraud purposes. He went to a local towing company and the owner of the place charged him $ 500 to make the car go away.

They filmed the whole transaction and the subsequent dismantling of the car, even with the employees bragging about how many cars they steal and how they were two time losers and couldn't get caught again. They even filmed them using the Blazer to steal some towing equipment off of a competitors truck the night before they stripped it. The cops swooped in, arrested them all, and they got ZIP, NADA, ZERO ! All they could get them on was receiving stolen property for which all of them got probation !

That is why these lowlifes continue to take cars without too much worry.
