Theives cut locks jacked it off of tow vehicle and swung it over to their White Dodge pick up. The LS-6 is a 18,000 mile car owned by a man out out of Ohio. Police have a Video of the whole theft but it was raining so its fuzzy. The trailer is a White Hallmark 24 foot with Ohio tags, shure by now fake plates are on it.

James,

------Im sure we all care,,,,A LOT!!! I know I do, but we have gone over a bunch of the stolen car specifics with Larrys cars the last week or so and the same ideas work in this instance as well. Most of us are too far from the scene to give anything more than encourgment and we are all keeping our fingers crossed for this LS6s speedy recovery.............Bill S

This really hits home with me on many levels,as Bill is also a good person and loves his Chevelles as much as anyone.But that's beside the point,as anyone who enjoys cars as much as we do,can imagine what this must feel like.They have a blurry Videotape of the theft in progress,thanks in part to the Camera/motion sensor mounted in the parking lot taking pictures.There was a Downpour of rain at the same time of the theft,and the rain drops are what made the camera activate and continue to take pix,although blurry from the rain drops as well.The thieves stole the plain white enclosed trailer Bills' Chevelle was stored in at a Hotel parking lot just this last Friday AM, June 23rd,2006 on his way to the Mid Atlantic Chevelle Show.

This is the LS-6 Chevelle that was stolen.
This is a 1970 LS-6 Chevelle that the N.C.O.A.was Raffling off to honor their 10th Anniversary.
Bill won it through that raffle held in 1992.
It was restored by SuperChevys lmtd. in Fla. back then.
I remember this car vividly as I must have sent in 100 entires just to try & win it.
To add what Jim said,it is an original Tuxedo Black-Black Vinyl top-White interior Bucket seat,console car.It's a Frame Up restored with 18,005 miles on it.It has the very scarce RPO U-46 Fiber Optic Vigilite Lamp Monitoring option.This is easily detected by the Chrome caps mounted atop both fenders,and interior rear package tray mounted Cobra eye.
It has full factory Gauges,Tilt St.Wheel,AM 8-tk Radio,And Rear Window Defogger.

Bill has allowed me to say that the Original engine #3963512,has a casting date of C2870.
The engine pad is stamped T0420 CRV with the CON VIN 10R243455 right behind it.
The cars assembled date is 05C..1970 May,3rd week.
The original GM Blue door label is still attached to the drivers door showing the Full Vin #136370R243455,..5/70.
It's original WO M-22 Transmission has the CON VIN on it,and the Original 4:10 posi rearend shows the CRW suffix.
There was no Buildsheet found for this car,but it does have it's original Protect-O-Plate.
The thieves got a 7 hour jump,before the theft was discovered.
A car like this does not go unnoticed,so Please watch for it,or any parts that you suspect could have come from it,and Notify authorities at once.

BOLT CUTTERS http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gifJust thought of another use for these when they nab him! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif

[JIM]

The plot thickens, the same night a friend of mine had his 69 Camaro SS Hotrod stolen 4 miles from where the Chevelle was nabed just over the line into Pa. Same guys????? Jim http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/burnout.gif

[Vettefinderjim]

Any updates? I know the feeling. Years ago I had my 61 IMPALA SS 348/350 stolen. It is such a violation........just plain rotten http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif. Got my fingers crossed. Sounds like they are close

Hope they nail the #######, on another note a suggestion for some of you guys. While most pre 80 era cars the vin tags and even secondary (hidden) vin's are defeatable or easily re-tagged I have made a suggestion to several car dealers in the Town where I work, and they have taken to implmenting this on some of the higher end Auto's. While the idea has not "beared any fruit" yet, it will. -- Engrave the VIN number of your vehicle on the inside of your "wheels or rims". Easy enough place to check when looking over a car and really one place the crooks do not look yet. Gives the Police another area to check and additionally this information can be "free text" into the NCIC miscellaneous field when entered by the police that take the stolen vehicle report. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif

But wheels are the easiest thing to change. Why not stamp it on the floorboard or something?

[Donutblue]

You can place it anywhere, however the wheels usually stay associated with the vehicle. Rarely, does a car thief change wheels and tires unless the car was stolen to be stripped. Secondly, car dealers usually are victim to theft's of wheels and tires - hence a traceable way to associate the wheels if law-enforcement comes across them during an investigation. --Thirdly, keep in mind that today 3M makes decals of VIN numbers that most car manufacturers are placing in many different places on the cars being produced today. If you have a fairly new BMW look around, you will see your VIN number plastered in several places, the most obvious is where the rear license plate goes. There are many you may not see as well. It's all about associating a VIN number with a particular vehicle in hopes of recovery if stolen.

My brother just returned from Australia where he was shown a new process they use to avoid VIN switching. They have a liquid which is sprayed in the crevices and underbelly of the car. It is invisible unless under ultraviolet light.

Not sure exactly how it works but it marks the car with literally thousands of the cars VIN number. It is absolutely everywhere and impossible to remove it unless you tear the whole car apart at all factory seems before acid dipping or sand blasting.

Look for it soon! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Sounds like a great idea, now convince the car manufacturers in the USA.

I bought a Mercedes E55 a few months ago and all body panels and key parts are identified with a coded number. even if the sticker is removed the number stays on the panel. MB have used a bar code ID system for many years,as far back as 1991 models.
Chrysler used a "secret" number on cars since the 50's. i just removed the heater box from my 1960 300F and found the number on the firewall. It is not a duplicate of the vin but it does identify the car a matching the body unit number and microfiche data.
I saw you stamp your car in 4 locations that are nor visible but easily locateable if nesessary.
Floor pan under carpet.
Bottem of doors.
trunl lid inner frame
rear frame rail.

Your news clip is very interesting. That is very close to where the 70 LS6 was stolen. Also makes sense that a race car was also found. Many racers stay at local motels around Cecil Cty Raceway. Chances are anybody with a nice trailer probably has something of great value inside.

[C1SS396]

Just read on a local racing site their may have also been a Chevelle found with the rest of the cars ...But just hear say for now..
