Someone tried to steal my LX!

Snakeman · 01-08-2002, 02:23 PM

bastages!

I was out checking out my cobra which I either blew a head gasket, or fouled a plug...when i figured i should start the old LX.
I hopped in and couldn't find anyplace to put the key

someone destroyed the lock mechanism...
I'm pretty mad!

time to call a locksmith?

man. why are some scumbag's so lowdown , this is sounding like a epidemic any more i wish i could catch some------- trying to steal something, i would give them a free gift, cant remember how many feet per second it travel's but it's fast& only cost's about 50 cent's, & my effort to pull the trigger.

ouch dude, sorry to hear about it. that's why my baby stays in the garage.

How long has it been since you've driven it?

That makes me so mad, my best friend had his '91 LX stolen from his front yard last year while they were home.. I hate those scumbags...

Idiots....... they'll get theirs soon enough.....

I hate the scumbags who mess with other people's stuff. But Crazy Horse GT is wrong. That would be too quick, I would prefrer a base-ball bat with some nails in it(rusty, dull nails)

Snakeman · 01-09-2002, 12:16 AM

cuz when the cobra's there, the lx won't move...
blocked in.

i haven't driven it in months. not since i got the cobra, actually.
9/17/01 is when i parked it.

they'll get theirs eventually, i'm certain.

What goes around, comes around, so no need to worry.

Daaaaaaaaaaaangggg Can no one get there own Mustang!!!!! I suppose not. I havent had anyone vandalize or try to rip of my cars (Knock on wood) All these posts about mustangs being vandalized and stolen is so discouraging and really GRRRRR makes me mad!!!! lol

There isn't a feeling quite like the one you get in your gut when you realize someone broke into your ride. I'm glad it didn't cost you any more than a new ignition lock!

Take care,
-Chris

Dang...That sucks. I have a dent in my Bronco one the ouside lock, where someone tried to pry the lock off, luckly it has an alarm. The dents not too bad, mostly a bent key lock.
