Man that sucks, What is wrong with these people, I really do think we should find them and take care of them with baseball bats, If someone even scratched my car I'd be ready to choke them or something and I'm sure you had a lot more time invested in yours. I really feel bad for ya man, hope you find out who it was and find the car, unharmed hopefully.

here is an Idea.

Buy an other Civic hatch, and mek sure it has a nice body on it, put some rims on it as well.

park it in you driveway with a flashbang wired underneath the car so if the car moves it set off the flashbang (or C4 whatever tutes your horn)

with that going off no Way in hell would they ever try to stell your car.

you can alway get lowjack, or some sort of transponder.

put 4 boots on the damn thing.

how to theft proof a civic
1. shave the door handles
2. get GOOD alarm ( aladin viper ect...)
3. replace glass with Plexy for side windows.
4. add lowjack
5. conseal tractor truck air horn underneath passenger side seat. compressor and backup batery in the spare tire well.
6. hire some guy name "Bucho" to gard the car with orders to kill on site.

man that too bad about your car... if you fell like taking a trip up north I know of a 89 civic hatch (auto) for sale for like 700$ needs some work.

I friend told me this yesterday, Jason it sounds kinda dumb but you may wanna try it.

A guy had his car stolen, around a year later he was snooping around autobytle.com or whatever that site is, he entered the VIN # for his car and found out it was actaully for sale not that far away. He got his car back (no he didn't buy it back).

Since you've lost 2 civics, and its been some time since you lost the first one, just something to maybe think about and try.

I'll keep a eye on on this side of PA for you, good luck to you, don't give up yet.

thanks for all the replies guys... smile

I'm sure I'll still be around, I was just a little frustrated then (still am, but you know...). anyway, the insurance company is supposed to call me today, so we'll see what happens with that, I'm sure I'll get screwed. I dont think any amount of protectionwould've stopped my car from getting stolen b/c it obviously got towed so I dont really know what could've prevented that... depending on how much money I get, I will get a new car...I'm not gonna let this shit stop me. I'm seriously looking into lojack and I'm gonna call a dealer today. I'm guessing its gonna be pretty damn expensive, or else everyone would have it...habib, I'm gonna seriously try that w/ myold vin when I get home wink

hehe.

damn man..that really blows. and right around christmas. i can't believe that someone would steal your project car. my gut reaction says it was a tuning shop near by..are there any tuning shops you frequent? ones around here are famous for hooking up people's cars, following them home and jacking the equipment a few days later. good luck w/ the insurance, maybe you can pick up somethin cool.

no, no tuning shops...I'm sure it was a crooked towing company or whatever...they're infamous for jacking people's cars when the get in fender bender's at the races or whatever....
