Nice...was it dumped? Any significant damage?

[Steve85]

Yessssssss! So happy this got found. Was genuinely considering cruising around my area (and yours @mercyseat ) to see if we could spot it.

Awesome work. Thanks everyone who assisted and kept their eyes out for this.

[Jeremiah O'Connor]

Reading this sure did scare me!!!

Yeah Steve and I woulda taken to the streets if it didn't turn up.

Damaged rear bumper. Looks like they rolled it then pushed it with another car.
Ignition damaged.
Not sure about the driveline still being investigated / finger printed me thinks by cops.

Main thing is its found, thanks to all the car loving peeps in Melbourne sharing the post.[emoji1303][emoji469][emoji469]

That's exactly what they did with my car but the morons couldn't get it started. The other car they pushed it with would have been stolen too, 100%.

Good to hear it was found, i remember seeing this at downshift. Hopefully they didn't do any other damage.

Out of curiosity/paranoia.. was there an alarm and/or immobiliser installed?

[mercyseat]

Yes had security. They broke in through the boot and disabled it someway through there. Then must of pushed it then roll started it. Not 100% sure.

 

I had my LP2 coupe there too at Downshift that day.

 

Quite a good Skyline turnout[emoji846]
