[phenline]

[Ten Four]

If its just the stereo and windows, thats insanely lucky :|

Grats to whoever found it and of course SAU

[dan_the_man]

Good to hear it's been located

Post up more details when you get them!

[Hanaldo]

Aw man thats f**king awesome!! I guess whoever stole it realised how far over they were! Question: How are they getting back to Perth lol?

Anyway, thats such good news, real happy for you man, the gem in WA's crown has been found. Sucks about the radio and windows, but atleast it is in one piece. Details!?

Just got back from Albany 2 weeks ago, the guy probably didnt know how to cope with all the round-abouts and wanted out lol.

Best of luck fixing the car Kelvin, and selling it if youre still going down that path... Make sure forensics check out the car, see if the thief left any evidence in there

[SKYRYAN]

Who would want a Kenwood stereo?

jks

Good to have the car back! Hope the panels and interior are still mint!

[techst]

Keen to find out who found it? Police/ranger or a member?

[Topaz]

Alright, now someone offer to drive him down there tomorrow. I have shit on at work, otherwise I would chuck a sicky

[Kelvin]

Hey guys, sorry for the lack of updates as my laptop was stolen as well so it's pretty hard coming onto the forums.

Anyway, the good news is that it's been found!! Received a call from the police at Albany police station to notify me that they've found my car. It was found at the side of some road in Albany. Asked about the condition and the cop told me it was "not too bad", just that the windows and stereo was taken out, maybe the electronic stuff as well. Will call them first thing in the morning tmr to find out the exact condition as well as arrange to bring it back to Perth where it belongs

Spoken to Kelvin, have let him know i spotted it at 11am yesterday morning while leaving albany heading home to perth.

Have also posted up on AlbanyModifiers to help kelvin out, someone should hopefully spot it, a very nice car nothing like it in albany.

fingers crossed for ya mate, chris

Big thx to chris who spotted my car along albany hwy which might have lead to the discovery of my car. Also to all those who had helped me spread the word in a matter of hours! Really touched to see the outpour of support from the car enthusiast community here in WA.

Big thanks once again to everyone. I will update you all on the condition once I have seen it in person. Also, could anyone please update the other car forums as well (ie perthwrx, silviawa, perthrotary, wahonda and others that I may have left out as I don't have an account with them) as I don't want to be chased and stabbed driving that car back!! haha

Anyway I will be looking to install a keypad alarm as well as a GPS tracking unit once I have it back and if anyone has any contacts for that pls let me know. Thanks!!

Cheers,

Kelvin

glad ur cars been found man. hope alot of damage hasnt been caused

[Passive]

Oh thats freakin awesome! I was scared they were just going to hide it in a garage and strip it to its bones!!!

Hopefully theyve done minimal damage. And hopefully the f***ers are caught...and shot.

Good luck with seeing it, i'm hoping for minimal damage for you!!!

[syfon]

You got it back mate, grats!

At least it hasnt been trashed completely...

[MLCrisis]

Hey, Kelvin. Only just seen this, as I have not been on the forums much lately. Glad it has been found and I hope there is not too much hassle in getting it back up here and getting it fixed. So sorry to see it has happened to you - everyone has said such a nice car, but such a great guy too! Life ain't fair, at times.

GPS Alarm - the type that phones you when things are awry - I know that Danny at Imports 101 can get them fitted ... ... .... ... which I might just be doing very soon!

It sounds like the back of the truck to a good workshop fior a thorough check is the go. They sound like they were f#ckwits, but check they did not put sugar in the tank or any crap in the engine oil. If the Power FC is gone, I have the factory ECU from mine, which you could borrow, if that helps at all.

All the best, mate.

Cheers.
