Willie, I'd also like to make a cash donation. Please PM me and let me know were I can send funds. It's the least I can do to help you get back on your feet (or should I say tires?) :TU: Matt

Wow, im glad you found it at least. A very srry sight. Hmm, whomever it was sure didn't know the value of a grill, even if they didn't need it, they can't be too literate as to break it. Very sad sight but it's always good to see the buick people helping.
Willie, I have a BOP Turbo400 longtail also. Needs a rebuild. Yours free if you need it. It was a gift from GSThunder to me, now I offer it to you. I also have an aluminum AC/Alt bracket you can have if you need it.

Glad to hear it Willie. Im so happy the convertible is going back together. How about some pictures of the progress? Im still haunted by the images of it at the impound yard.
Investigation???? What ever was the outcome of the prints they lifted? Or do they even care?? :rant: :spank: :blast:
Hey that sounds just like the Omaha city Police. They had my Dakota for a week in the impound (they even knew it was there) after it was stolen. Tey didn't even attempt to take prints :rant: :rant: :rant: And now that I have it back they wont do anything because the crime scene has been contaminated. I'm thinking I should hire a lawyer and sue the Omaha Police.
Early in this thread there was some discussion of this being an inside job. Can you think of anyone who knew your schedule and has ties to the area the shell was recovered? John
Know the Feeling! I have had 2 cars stolen from my school in the last year. I know it is some of the students, but can get very little help from the police. Both have been recovered. The first with a rod out the block. The second they put a rock on the gas pedal and tried to run it over a bluff. It hit a tree and stopped it and some hunters found it. The second one could have only been taken by one or more of 13 students. That was all that had a chance to steal the keys which were found in the car. I thought it would be simple to print the remote entry key fob and find my thief. But the police never tried because they said it was damp in the car. It was found down an old railroad bed about 2 miles from no where, but two of the students lived near there and rode 4 wheelers there and knew the area. Of, course I caught 4 smoking dope in the restroom and the police came and when they took the ring leader into a room to search and question him they let him throw it on the floor and the 4 got out of it. Where's the justice? Jim N.
Ive gone thru the whole range of emotions over this cuz I just discovered this thred. and after seein the pics I am just gonna find a trash can and puke for awhile...sorry for yer loss Willie ...fish BTW I have the Car Craft with that car in it ..freakin gorgeous
hey john, to many people know me and the car, it is really hard to sort out who by just guessing, i don't hang around or deal with lowlife, scumbag, trash, so i need to leave it to the police, we have finger prints, and d.n.a from the car, there is a full scale investigation, and i do believe the police knows who did this, i am just waiting for them to nail the scumbag, they will not give me anymore info, but there was a rumor i may be getting my trailer and parts back. well i sitting back and waiting, i have also continued a search on my own, and i have no less than three hundred people looking, and these guys are good, i will never rest until my things come back. these guys picked the wrong car and trailer to steal. i am very intensive and very detailed, i will turn over every rock, and every little stone.
