Our 1971 MGB Parts car, it's engine and tranny, and our 1964 Impala doghouse (which was in great shape) have been stolen from my grandparents farmhouse in Ford County Illinois (about a half hour away from champaign). I live an hour away from where the car and parts were stolen. The brakes on the mg were locked up and it had no floor, the engine hidden in a corner, and the doghouse has been in the same location since before I was born. The MG engine was in great shape and that is what is missed most. I'm sure they were all scrapped :( The thieves did miss the vintage set of SS rims, 65 Impala SS interior parts, and the 64 Impala Hood (that was right next to the doghouse...) Disregard the picture of my cousin in the picture of the parts car.

Has anyone from your neighbourhood fled recently?

Wouldn't really matter, I live an hour away from where the car was stored.

I'm asking because this doesn't sound like a luck job, whoever stole your grandparents was watching them. I'll be on the hunt for suspicious ads in the webernetz.

I'm so sorry, dude. Best of luck finding the car, parts, and the asshole(s) who stole them. I can't imagine what a shock it must be; it's one of those things you never expect to happen to you.

Yeah, it was only a parts car, so not too much was lost. It is just the fact that someone stole something that pisses me off.
