pattayadingo Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Have to keep our eyes open for it when out and about. Hope they have not changed the number plate, scrapped it or moved it on somewhere and that you get it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbrain Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Why would someone want to steal such a rare exclusive car? Have you checked already if wasn't towed away by police for some reason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardog Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 One would think that car will surface soon. Got to be a one of a kind in Pattaya. The only reuseable part is the engine tranny & rearend. Tough to hide this older collectors car. Good luck in finding it. Chances are some dikhead needed a ride home & the 70's models are way to eay to hotwire.

Thailaw Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) I have some "information about this" -- The car in the picture was stolen yesterday, 2nd April 2013, from Jomtien beach around Soi 5-6 at 12:00 o'clock (noon or midnight, I am not sure). Sorry, I don't know any more. Is this enough information to get the reward, or at least a part of it -- maybe B20?

PC800 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Yes, that is the car....between Jomtien 15 and 16 on Jomtien Beach Road, on the ocean side. I have not received a phone call from the owner yet. However, the moderator forwarded my number. While I went back, I did see a guy parked behind, so assume that was TV member Johng. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did he leave the keys in it when it was stolen? Did the guy who found it get the 50k reward? This is quite an exciting post so OP please let us all know?

Basil B Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) Glad it has been found. I saw a similar car a few years back, It had all the windows and roof removed, and had a repaint job in pink emulation paint. Some kids dressed in military fatigues, tin helmets and armend with "Super Soaker's" were driving it. Edited April 3, 2013 by Basil B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbrain Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 No news from me. I hope he recovered it without problem, it did look driveable. But no word from the owner, yet. However he must have seen you PM or post as he was online at 5pm, so about 1 1/2 hour earlier., so the least he could have done is give you a call. Something doesn't add up.

Yeah, it does seem odd that there has been no word back from the owner after people have been keeping their eyes open AND one person found it. I see from the photos it has had a prang. Does not look serious but the consequences of a prang - say with a m/c - could have been nasty. In the original photo posted by the op it is not 100% certain if the wing was dented prior to the theft. BTW... good on johng for being so eagle eyed. i too hope you get the reward and that everything is kosher edit typos from sticky fingers Edited April 3, 2013 by pattayadingo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bumper is bent pretty bad. I had one exactly like it years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
