I Want whoever Stole Her Car to Steal Mine

I saw this on the news earlier, Her car was reported stolen 3 years ago and the police just found and returned it with lots of Mods.. Including Brand new souped up motor, Swaped the Auto for a Manual Brand new leather seats, and lots of other goodies

Brooklyn teacher's stolen car found during NYPD chop shop raid and returned in 'Grease' condition

awesome story! wow.




When something like that happens, does she pay for everything out of pocket? Getting a new vin# and plates installed, etc. Pay back insurance for what they paid her for it being stolen? Or does anyone know how this all works out? I'm just curious.

the rims arent that special, they came factory on the 2000 - 2002 special edition accord ex's

as for the motor, now THAT is nice, its an h22 out of a prelude, bolts right in and its a good thing the guy put a manual in it cause the accord auto's on that year sucked big donkey *****, i had a 94 that blew up on me. Either way that motor probably cost more than the car blue books for.
