Sooner or later every car falls apart, ours does it later!

What are the odds?

At least it was restored, wonder if the repaint was a Ford color? If so, a thoughtful thief.

They had a spread on that in the SF Chron. I wonder what the lady who bought it on e-bay will be left with?

Will she be the loser in this?

The article suggests that Allstate paid the owner for the loss of the T-Bird. If that is so, Allstate owns the car.

well she should have the info on who she bought it from.take em down dan-o

If that person was the thief. It might have changed hands several times in the interim.

And that's an interesting point about Allstate owning the car.
