Damn Teddy, that sucks! I hope you get the dime back. I'll keep a look out down here in SD area for you.

However 2 things you said made my paranoia alarm go off....

friend of a friend

Echo Park

2 phrases that should not be used when referring to your car.

Maybe your on that show "Overhaulin" and a friend of yours took the car to get it all done up by Chip Foose

Just trying to lighten it up man. Good luck. I wish you all the best. Remember things happen for a reason.

Well you know, I figured that. Maybe it was stolen because I would have killed myself while driving it in the mountains or something.

But the least God could have done is "misplace" a $5,000 wad of cash in my mailbox or something....

UPDATE: I received an e-mail from a NICO member saying that they had spotted a car that was similar to mine in Hollywood. I went to check it out and thought for sure that it was mine. It was friggin identical. But as I came closer, the sad truth hit me... it was a 4 door.

Thanks once again to you all for keeping a look out for me.

if that was the worst mistake of your entire life, all things considered, you're not doin so bad man. there's way worse **** that could happen to you. not that that doesn't suck, but you gotta be optimistic about **** like this. Be careful who you trust and cover your ***. i hope it turns up

I called my insurance today, tomorrow we're gonna look over what parts were on my car and what value they had. Hopefully I'll be able to get some money out of this....

I also called detectives. They still dont care. I will call them tomorrow again and ask about it....

I hope you have all your reciepts and other "worth" info... still, be prepared for the low-ball/bone job they're likely to throw your way.

Still, best luck.
