Man... that really sucks. Very sorry to hear about that. All thieves should be dealt with by removing their hands. Problem solved; no more crime from that individual.

Hope that you're able to recover your things.

Sorry to hear, but I know the feeling, ars.......

Happend to me 5 years ago, we(3 mates and I) had some very rare stuff for old alfa romeo s and peugeots and had almost everything double...
took us till now to replace everything and a lot of money, stopped counting, but you could built a cool bug from it...
and the police(the netherlands) did nothing about it..

Hope you get the bastards or your stuff back.

I don't know what makes me feel more sick, the idea that this was a fellow enthusiast who has stolen parts knowingly, or the thought of original 70's cal-look history being weighed in as scrap metal :(

Either way this is SHIT.

Man Dean, I am really sorry to hear about your loss! :'( However, I don't think the stuff was taken for "scrap metal", but more than likely from someone who knew what you had and how much it was worth. We had (the same guy) break-in at my work and everytime he knew exactly where the copper and stainless pipe were. The last time he and a few other guys loaded up an old truck that was used on the jobs to transport debris to the local dump (that was sitting in our storage yard-which was completely locked) with all of the copper we had. He knew where to cut the chainlink fence without the cameras seeing him, and he also knew to bring a battery charger and starting fluid to steal that truck (which barely started up and ran!). >:( The police found the truck 2 months later abandon (primered) and there was a jacket with a gas station reciept in the pocket. The police didn't even do anything! Moral of the story, Don't count on the police! >:(

Lock all of your stuff down and don't tell anyone what you have! Good luck in bringing justice and getting your parts back! It's going to be difficult to "get rid of that stuff" due to the internet and everyone attending the swap meets that is now looking out for your parts. And don't go on  a "rampage" and start selling all your VW parts and cars! ;)

x2 with all the messages, I will keep an eye out for any of those items. That is some rare stuff, it must be someone in the know who has done it, but the world is a pretty small place with the net, and there is no way he will be able to move that stuff about without one of us noticing, then he gets what he deserves.

Si.
