STOLEN!!! 1967 Chevy shortbed from Oak Park Mall/ Overland Park Ks area - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

sduckworth13 · 05-14-2015, 12:04 AM

This is not my truck and have no affiliation with the owner. I just want to put this here just in case someone comes across this truck. Here is the story from the local Kansas City news.

Me too. I have had a car stolen before, fortunate that my cell phone that I had tucked in the door pocket was on. I always leave my GPS active just in case, lucky for me the cops located the car with a few calls to Sprints security dept.

I hate thieves!!

supercheyenne · 05-14-2015, 04:10 AM

Well that really sucks. The guy clearly scrimped and saved for this.

**Ol Blue K20** · 05-14-2015, 08:15 AM

Totally sucks, I hope they find it and the thief. Then string him up!

ksshane · 05-14-2015, 08:50 AM

posted on my local c10 clubs facebook page since we are only a few hours away. Hope the poor guy gets his truck back.

SMART!!! I am going to hide a cell phone anytime I leave it for more then a minute....

Thanks for that idea!

sduckworth13 · 05-14-2015, 01:18 PM

Your welcome.

sduckworth13 · 05-14-2015, 01:23 PM

I was at the gym at the time, other wise I would have had the phone with me. The worst part is I couldn't call anyone to come get me because I couldn't remember anyone's number.

Cam-Shaft · 05-14-2015, 09:31 PM

Went to the movies the other day with a brand new four wheeler in the back of my dad's truck. Left my phone under the seat and being its an iPhone I new I could use the "find my phone" app to locate it.

**special-K** · 05-14-2015, 10:02 PM

Scumbag thieves! I hate them. I had a '71 C/30 NAPCO that got stolen back in '92 from the shop that pulled the utility bed I sold so I could start the body restoration. The worst part was, I had completely rebuilt the drivetrain and it was a monumental task gathering the NAPCO parts. This was before the internet (for me, at least). ARGH!!!

I know how this guy feels and it sucks! The bad feeling (and anger) comes right back every time I hear a truck is stolen someone put a lot into

hounddogs! · 05-14-2015, 10:09 PM

Watching in Lawrence.

sduckworth13 · 05-14-2015, 10:29 PM

Thanks guys. Hopefully he gets it back in one piece.

**Advanced Design** · 05-15-2015, 07:24 AM

Poor guy...I feel same as everyone else. Our first ever new car..86 Buick Grand National...was stolen. Weird feeling when it isn't where you left it.

markmdz · 05-15-2015, 01:48 PM

people who steal stuff need to get the punishments like they do out east. ...get caught stealing something: 1st time, get your hand broken. 2nd time, get it cut off.

...it'll really make you think twice if it's really worth doing.

Jonlopes · 05-15-2015, 02:28 PM

What kind of security do you use? I have an old "The Club" in the garage but I heard they are not that effective. Maybe a kill switch?

That's my world as well. No need for jail time.

Totally agree. Jail is a taxpayer funded hotel where petty criminals get to learn new techniques and contacts from the hardened (lifer) criminals.

That was a scary deal. Ours ended up in Camden, NJ, police called, they had it in impound. Went to get our baby expecting a stripped hulk. Instead it was washed, waxed, guy added fuzzy dice and a steering wheel wrap, we got his leather jacket, a bunch of casette tapes and a dust buster. Rear tires were bald. Funny part was he replaced the door lock knobs with the theft proof smooth knobs. We sold the car just after and bought a new 87 GN.

oldertruckfan · 05-15-2015, 09:56 PM

We were moving when my K10 got stolen, and everything I held dear to me was in the bed. the cops found it the next afternoon. in neutral on the 4 transfer case selector. it seems the thieves weren't four wheel drive friendly and couldn't get it in gear, so they left it.
