That's great news! Sorry you had to go through the stress of it all. Hospitals have security cameras. They might have video of the bum.

Glad you got it back and that it wasn't destroyed.

Tony, glad you got it back relatively unmolested.
It makes me sick to my stomach when I hear of this happening.

Thankfully thefts of such vehicles are rare this side of the pond,due to their rarity(obviously very hard to hide) and a close knit custom/collector car community.
It also helps being an island.

My friend had an OT car stolen a few years back and did get it back although when he received it he wished he hadn't.

The interior was trashed and lets just say had been treated to some bodily functions.......... big_eek

I hope the police don't close this file. Hopefully they will make an arrest as well.

That's unbelievably good news Tony. We all know the odds after its gone missing for more than a few days. I’m thankful it wasn’t maliciously damaged just for kicks.

Congrats. You beat the odds bigtime. Was it dusted for prints? or is that just for feel-good TV shows?
