STOLEN: Blue 280z in Downtown San Jose


Recommended Posts

The thing that pisses me off the most is that the forklift that courtesy tow yard used to move my car around totally crushed the lower tank of my radiator. Now I have to replace that too!

 

Most tow yard/JY employees are TOOLS. They should have more respect for a classic than to use a forklift.

 

Glad you found your car! Sorry about the damage. Good luck!

Hey Grats on getting your car back. Don't let the insurance company screw you over on parts. yeah everything will need to be aftermarket, but at leas tthe car is back in one piece and not torched as is often the case in NM. Suck you lost the rims and the damage to the radiator.

 

Thieves suck, no 2 ways about it, they just suck.

 

Little known fact about any S30, you can take a screwdriver insert it into the ignition an whack it w/ a hammer, and vroom, starts right up unless you have an ignition kill alarm. So if you're going to put any kind of $ into your Z, please consider getting a good alarm.

 

That's how they stole my old 280Z, but I got mine back a week later, I was driving around n saw it sitting in a lot. Joy riders, they took my old tapes (this was years ago) but never looked in the back to get my tool box. they put 140 miles on it and even put gas in it. Cops finger printed it, but nothing ever came of that. So glad your is okay. I've got a set of old rims off my current 280z if you're interrested, you would need to pay shipping to San jose' but I bet insurance will buy you some watanabi's.. Go for 17's

haha if the joy riders tried to steal my car and drive it and fill it with gas, they would quickly find out that filling it is more complicated than they think! and would have got gasoline all over them and got the owners of the place mad, who would ask for all of the license and reg and then they would find out its stolen! (happened to me when I first got my car, I spilled gas on myself and told the owners to clean up the ground, then they asked me for all the proof because I was 16 with a very clean z car)

 

Anywayzs, I would seriously consider getting into it with the damn forklift guys, thats such bullshat
