Lost the Hawk GT Transmission

Parked at home, it's a condo complex. The Hawk project is filling the garage. We have had a few stereos stolen lately. About average for Austin. And some kids slashed some tires one night last year. I can't afford to move. And besides I don't have a truck to move the furniture, Ha Ha. I agree, it does seem like car theft is treated like jay walking. It is not a violent crime like car jacking, but I feel pretty violated right about now. Of coarse there is a 63 Wagonaire for sale near me. Or maybe I will indulge my mid-life crissis and get the red Fiero V6 for sale locally. My friends say I will have to wear some gold chains and glue on a mustash if I do that. Thanks T

You'd think would have just grandfather'd horse thievery laws when the horseless carriage arrived on scene.

Thanks Lee, You will now be known as Lee "hang em high" Aanderud. That has a good ring to it. T

Not in liberal Austin.

Austin is the pits when it comes to ordinary folk getting justice. The cops are next to useless and the city council is worse than that.

That's one of the reasons I moved out of town to the country...

Sorry to hear about the theft. I've never been as unlucky as that bit I have had items stolen off of vehicles I've owned and so have relatives. Hear's to hopeing that it was just some punk a$$ looking out for a joyride and that you getr everything back in one piece.

I have a suggestion for how to deal with car thieves that I'm sure thant ANYBODY who has ever had a car stolen from them would agree with (wether they got the car back or not). But the gov'ment wouldn't like it.

I say treat them like they used to treat horse thieves, hang 'em! After all, they ARE stealing our 'horse-power'....

Seriously thow, we have a repeat problem here over in Regina and Saskatoon where they keep catching the same juveniles stealing cars. they get caught, get a slap-on-the-wrist sentance and when they get out they do it again. Not for parts or anything, just to joyride and smash them up. If they'd putt the little peckers in the stocks down by city hall for a week THEN give them a year in jail MINIMUM for their first offence maybe they would think more than 30 seconds about it the next time. Second offence, a public floging and jail, third, well, let's just say there wouldn't be a fourth offence...

There's someone wo's thinking along the lines I am... See my earlier post...

Personally, I would have Michael Jackson checked out.

If you don't want the Wagonaire, please let other's know of it's location?

I believe it is on Craig's List...

Yes _ the guy has two for sale , the Wagonaire and a four door Lark. If someone is seriously interested I can take some pictures and post them online. His Wagonaire asking price is high, but it is just the asking price. Tony in Austin.

Take a look at O.J. while you're at it.

Gee, we should be cops, eh?
