last night, one of our fellow Miata brother's hardtop was stolen near george bush and the toll way::Rant::
they smashed the passenger window and took it!
Some of you know the car, it's Daniel's red '91. It was at the Jack Junkies event last night(last to arrive with black wheels)... for those who happen to see the worst coat of red paint they've ever seen, that's the top!
It also has a vin# engraved in the glass, I'll update if he finds the number.
any information would be appreciated!
Man that is some bullshit.
I'm always on craigslist - if I see it I'll post.
might want to get that vin to the PD so they can let body shops know, or call around yourself.
That sucks.....
sweet! thanks.Quote:

Fail.
Epic fail!
This really sucks.
Is the engraved VIN different than the VIN of the car? If it's the same as the car it should be on his insurance and title documents. Title should be stored away from the car and insurance docs should be available online.Quote:

But blah that sucks so much.
Hard top thieves have a special place in hell. ::EvilBana Right between evil dictators and televangelists.
^^^ what REALLY sucks is that one of us may be the intended market!Quote:

What the hell, man?
When my Integra was stolen, I replaced it with a Miata specifically because the theft rates were more reasonable. I mean, it's not like you can swap Miata parts into a $500 econobox. I thought I was safe(r).
If another of my cars gets stolen, I'm dialing 1911, not 911. ::Censor::
