I wish I could give you a name. My source is working on trying to find a name out for me. But I can no promise anything. I swear on my own Evo, that I have no clue what the shop's name is.

I can only assume its a shop that probably deals with online business only and maybe a fairly new shop? IDK. I could be wrong.

All I know is for sure these people are driving these parts to a shop out in Indiana.

I have seen those Bait car shows and that seems to work petty good. So if these guy are stealling ONLY Evos then set up an evo sting! Get all the info from a good source about where these evos have been stolen and set it up in a area that is know to get your car stolen. If the theives read this post, Yea bit*h3$ yal lucky im in chicago, id turn punisher on yal a$$!
Although a sting car would work wonderfully the problem there is, you would have to have more then one car. Which would then get very confusing. These people stealing the cars have no rhythm or reason, they are just talking cars randomly. From what I know when they see a car they want, they watch it for awhile then come back for it. To set up a sting would be too hard because who knows what area they will hit next and who knows what area they are looking around in. For all we know, they could be looking throughout several different places at once. Not to mention that I doubt the state wants to have to pay back the owner for any damages that happens during the sting.

The real enthusiast, who knows no amount of money from an insurance check will make them feel at ease. The guy that wants his own justice....

This will be the ultimate mistake you guys make. As even if it is the first Evo you are trying to steal, the wrath that follows will be undeniable. I have a group of four previous Evo owners who have had their car stolen, that need retribution.

As dumb as it may sound, you play with fire....you will get burnt.

Hope all you midwestern people keep your Evos safe.

Bill
I second that you bastards!!

But know this... I know even more people that want retribution then his 4. One day you will mess with the wrong person and your life will end.

I know that when the police put one group in jail another comes out from the cracks and starts the drama all over again. That's just life and theres unfortunately nothing we can do about it. And I agree it is and has not just been the Mexicans who steal Evo's. This is a given since back in the day there were Polish and Albanian guys stealing Evo's.

If you know so much, talk to KCAT.

Hell, there's a member or more on here. . .

There are a lot of people here who would like nothing more than for these guys to get caught. That said, you're delusional if don't think at least one person involved with these thefts lurks/posts on evom and is getting a big laugh out of you throwing free information around. Keep it confidential (PM's work) or take it to the cops. A thread like this can only help them protect themselves.

Just an obstacle. Easily over come with wheel dollies. These are not high school kids.

If they want it, it's theirs unless you keep an eye on your **** at all times.

For all those who PM and email me annonymous thinking things will get done...


There are plenty of people on these boards theat have RELEVANT information that maybe able to put a stop to all this shi*.

If people acted the way that they talked, and actually DID something as opposed to dropping dumb clues like i'm Inspector fuggin Gadget, this may have some type of resolution. Problem is, most people collect insurance checks out of this and are happy with the end result. Not caring that their pride and joy was just stolen from under their noses.

A bunch of us have names, pics etc. If someone knows something new , grow a pair of nuts and let it be known. Damn pansies hiding behind PC's. As I said, I have met up and talked with other members from these boards. There a few die hard guys out there, the rest are just talk.

If you aren't going to tell me something worth while, or drop a name or two...let's not waste each others time. Good morning to all BTW.

I completely agree.

To some it is simply a car and that insurance check covers the loss. But to others it is more then just a car. Many of us put a lot of time, money and effort / passion /love into them. To those people an insurance check may cover the financial side of things but not the emotional side.

Hence why I posted what I did. I am not trying to spread more gossip or be one of those people, I am simply trying to help others. I got a tip from a source and voiced it to try and help. Take it for whats its worth and believe what you will... "TO EACH THEIR OWN."
