Also Bakersfield Police Department called this morning with a guy trying to sell some old scrap metal that looks like car parts. They detained him and kept the scrap as evidence. Might be a good lead.....

LOLZ.

So this was obviously a joke. Funny to some, others not so much.

Just in case anyone is skimming and not reading each post:

The 50/50 Camaro was not stolen. It is at Ironworks Speed and Kustom.

I hope I didn't piss too many people off with my little 'Overhaulin' type story. The pic I posted is of Rodger Lee, owner of Ironworks. He picked up 50/50 while out at the SEMA show, and he is going to breathe new life into the car. He and I had the idea to tell people who ask about it that it was stolen, so we ran with it. It picked up more steam than I thought it would in such a short time, I even saw mass emails circulating about it already. For that I apologize. We have a great community here, tons of people willing to help out a stranger; I didn't mean to decive, just wanted to have a little fun with a project that at times got the best of me.

The first hint of my car going to Ironworks actually came out in Rich Allen's thread. Rodger slipped my car into the background of one of his updates. Brent Dupont, Rich Allen, Mick etc picked up on it rather quickly, but few others did. Here is the post for reference:

The plan is to cut out the entire chassis and start over. Ironworks will be redoing the front and rear chassis, body and sheetmetal.

Ok. I have confessed. Ready for my flaming and public beating.

I wondered, but damn - Nice One!

You had me fooled. Some people were getting seriously distraught. If you had let this go long enough, Rodger may have ended up in Police custody. :_paranoid

Got me too....at times I wondered early on but It's one of those things you don't want to call B.S. on if true as that would only upset the owner.
