i was only a few days away from having my 914 run again when it was stolen. i had all the parts to fix it, new engine harness, new alternator etc. McMark even stopped by to help me with the starter and harness (i have no real tools or jackstands at my house) ...
but ever since i got the car back from the police, i have been avoiding it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) i somehow still feel violated ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sheeplove.gif) Andy |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/sheeplove.gif) Andy I actually think there is a common disassociation phenomena with a recovered stolen vehicle. My sister actually had 2 cars stolen from her. Both times when they were recovered she wanted absolutely nothing to do with them. The first one was an 89 blazer that was stolen from her back in 94 before it was stolen it was a 68K mile cream puff. It came back with a couple of scratches and not much else wrong (steering column of course) I had it fixed perfectly for her but she got rid of it none the less about 2 weeks later. The same thing happened with the 93 chevy short bed step side truck she got after that ... that got stolen in 96 ... they stole the seats and wheels so I put new seats and wheels on it for her and she sold it right after that. Theropy would be cheaper than starting over (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
