ATS 50/50 Camaro
 

There is finally an end to long tale of what happened to 50/50. I moved the car out of my garage in August to a storage spot down the street. The plan was to un-clutter my shop, and get some good useable space in my house. I went to grab a mock up display there last night and to my surprise my unit no longer had a lock on it.

I bet you can guess what I'm about to say next.

So I roll up the sliding bay door to take peak and my heart sinks. 50/50 has been stolen. It looks like a bomb went off inside my storage unit. They took the car, the body kit, the HRE wheels, the drivetrain; everything but some old displays from SEMA, a tool box full of hardware and a few chairs. Even better than that was there is another 68 RS/SS sitting on a trailer OUTSIDE 14 feet from my unit that was left alone

I called the police, who told me to come down and file a report (they wouldn't even send a unit over to dust for prints) called the storage space manager to have them review the security tapes and went home. Got a call this morning that it was stolen by flatbed over 3 weeks ago around 4pm in the afternoon. Even have pics of the truck and guys who took it. I have little hope that it will be recovered as anything but a shell, and I can kiss those HRE wheels good bye. Keep your eyes peeled though, and call my shop if you have seen or heard anything about it.

That car and period of my life is dead to me now. I don't really want it back anymore now that it has been ransacked and mistreated by yet another group of people.

From here on out just leave this car be. I don't want to talk about it ever again. Thanks for letting me vent.

Dude that really sucks. :(

Man that sucks.
 

Tyler,

I'm sorry to hear about that, it really breaks my heart. I could not imagine having my car stolen. I've heard nothing but good things about you, and no one deserves that. Again, I am really sorry, and I wish you the best.

I was so happy to see your post until I opened it and read what had happened. My heart is still just below my stomach! I was going through some pictures that I got from Wayne Due (from years back) a couple of weeks ago and found pictures of your car and was going to ask you where you were at with it.

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss! Did you get the license of the truck? Man my heart goes out to you. I will keep an eye out for you and will get the word out through friends.

I can't tell you how bad I feel for you. I hope they catch the people responsible and they get what is coming to them.

Sorry bro....same thing happened to my first 68. Storage unit and the lock was cut off. Never..ever put my car in one. If anybody does, make damn sure you drop it off late at night and don't tell a sole where it is. I know mine was an inside job.

NNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!

:willy:


Suck's man... maybe it's for the best though, so you can move on. Still, it's not the way the story should have ended :(

What a gut wrencher!

Obviously someone seen you put it in the storage unit. It's either someone connected to the storage place or someone with a unit next to yours that watched you bring it in. No other possible way for someone to know.


Does the storage place have insurance?
Either way, I hope you get some money back.
