Noticeable things are:a year old paint job, stock rims,ttops has Buick Motorsports decal on both side windows,High Output V6 decal above 3rd brake light and a Kirban ram air kit. This is the car that my dad dreamed of owning back in 87. Finally got one 4 years later and got me hooked and I bought one eventually. Please.

I'm a new member and live in north jersey. You have my word when I say I will keep a close eye out for it. I hope it is recovered quickly. Just out of curiosity, did it have a kill switch in it?

No kill switch...

 

[turboculosis]

Thanks again guys, but nothing yet from the cops.

I didn't think these cars are still hot for being stolen, but then when you consider how easy it is compared to today's cars with chips in the keys and ignition it makes sense. My mechanic installed a hidden kill switch connected to the computer so even if they break the ignition open and hot wire it the car can't be started. Then again nothing beats a flatbed truck.

Hey man im in north jersey as well and will also keep a look out for ya..

 

[callmeebryan]

Im from Central Jersey, i will spread the word to the locals and keep eyes pealed for ya bud... :frown:

 

[turboculosis]

Thanks guys!!! Well the car hasn't been recovered and probably won't be. :frown: But still got some hope left, hey ya never know. It all falls in the hand of the ins. co. and how much they are going to pay vs. value of the car. But not until next week, needs to be a month long w/out recovery of the car before total loss is considered.And w/ that money, however how much.. we will be TR shopping once again. And the first bolt on will be a Lojack and a few other things we have in mind.(security-wise). Thanks again to all looking out for us, we deeply appreciate it.
