My Dad's car was stolen from my parents hotel carpark last night on the Gold Coast. They were down the for the Wintersun Festival.
The car was in an secure underground carpark, blocked in by two other cars (the Mustang was moved to get the car out)
It's a 1928 Ford Model A Tudor, Bright Orange, open engine etc, REGO: THRSTY
Please if the car is seen anywhere can you contact the police.

This is one of the worst blue collar crimes there are. Should be punishable by public stoning.

Good luck mate. It's a VERY conspicuous car. Hopefully somone has seen it.

I think I actually met your parents not too long ago at a car show. I recognise the plates. I had a big F100 that your old boy quite liked. swapped some stories, enjoyed talking to them. Such a shame bad things happen to good people.

Wow.. two cars being stolen on almost the same day. I agree with Smiley, some form of public humiliation / suffering should be allowed for people who are caught stealing others pride and joy.

I really hope they find the cumstains that stole that car. If you find him first, beat the shit out of him and make a topic in OT saying you found him then you can invite everyone to beat seven shades of shit out of him!

Sorry to hear dude.

so the mustang was moved, and you just have to look at the car to tell that I'm pretty certain it's not just everyday amateur car thieves.
they obviously knew what they wanted, and took it....
most likely in parts right now?

fucking sucks, but you probably won't get it back...

I've edited the topic title for you so it's more obvious to people.

I'd say if it's not still on the back of a tow truck, it's in a shop somewhere. That said you are right, someone has to have seen something. Good luck with it.

Sucks dude, it obviously wasn't a spur of the moment theft - could even be the same people who hit all those nice cars last year.
AFAIK, everybody who owns a car of this vintage/quality should have GPS tracking.

Geez - I can't belive some people these days, just no respect for anyone else at all.


So sorry to hear, for them to go to so much effort to steal the car its ..I don't know beoynd me to be honest. So many cars have been flogged off this year.


Will keep a look out for you mate

Sadly, if someone has gone to enough trouble to steal it from a locked underground garage, with two cars already in front of it, they knew what they wanted and have probably done this many times before.

Yep, as I said above, I think a car of this vintage and how much it stands out, it will be parted, but how many people have these cars these days? Not many, so someone must be in the vintage car circle or linked to it...

If I were to steal a car that stands out too much to drive, I would part it out, they wouldn't steal it for no reason (not that I would steal a car anyway, just an example) so I think people should keep an eye out for some magical Model A Tudor parts that may become available..... squint.gif

Yeah there has been a bit of planning/experience gone into it.
It would have had to be someone who was also staying in the same hotel.
A Monaro was stolen from the same place last night too.
I'm devastated to think that people can be so low.
Gives me lttle faith in humanity.
I can't even begin to imagine what my dad must be feeling like right now.
Thanks for all the support guys, we really appreciate it

That is 2 wintersuns in a row that cars have gone missing like that, The scum needs to be strung up in the middle of wintersun so every one can sort them out.
Sorry to here will keep eyes and ears open.

Goes to show, that if you have a really nice car to have a few security cameras installed in your garage. My old man has a really nice mustang, is locked inside the garage, more of a show car then driven, we have 3 security cameras that link right into his room, and behind the main garage lifter, there is a kycoded lock which you have to enter the numbers or it rings the police:P

maybe you want to edit your post prancer and remove the details potentially telling people what security measures your father uses head_wall.gif

Best thing to do is keep an eye on ebay, 2nd hand shops ect in the future. It's a bloody crying shame I tell you. I don't think public embarrassment or stoning is good enough for these low lives...jail isn't either.

Update: the car was seen heading north to brisbane on the M1 at aproximately 7.30am by people who had met my parents at the Brisbane hot rod show a few weeks ago

if you know the rough time and place it was spotted can you get the police to look at the traffic cameras on overpasses?

What the fuck aye?!? I'm sure someone will be able to report a description of the people/peron who drove it away, as everyone wud have been looking at it as the douche bags took it.

Goodluck, keep making reports on it in other places, that 1 person that may haveseen who it was may come across it.

Ugh, car thieves are the lowest. Horrible feeling knowing some crackhead is driving YOUR car. Bloody horrible! I went for a drive around Loganlea, Loganholme, Woodridge, Beenleigh etc. recently and probably will again while looking for my Torana so I'll keep an eye out. Fingers crossed!

Your dads is awesome too!

I really hope he gets it back! That's very sad!
