Scumbag filth. No sympathy is deserved for these people, they should all be castrated.

I have sent a mass msg asking people to Keep A Lookout For it.

Some more info:

EA (Gold)
Distinctive bump on RHR door

I'll go for a quick run shortly through a few stations between here and town.

thats the worst mate, worst problem to have with your car and then to have it stolen.

i'm crying thinking about your car, let alone if it was my car!! :(

hopefully the block seizes up on a FWY somewhere and they ditch it.

engine change overs are cheap as chips these days so loosing an engine for the hole car and all your stuff back is well worth it in my opinion.

but then you woulld want it back in one piece as anyone would but that rarely happens these days.

hope it works out in the end mate.

Unhappy stolen

sorry to be the bearer of bad new's my DA ltd was stolen and never recovered but to go with that was absolutely bolloxed by insurance company to the tune of (2) two investigations .BUT I HOPE yours will be different and they at least find it. Good luck. If you get a chance check around the back sts near the lost dogs home in North Melb behind the old footy ground and around top end around alfred sts always been a spot for dumped cars close to city but mostly industrial.
