That stinks man. My brother had his 70 c-10 broke into and vandalized in broad daylight once. We are leaving in desperate times. Hope you get the people who did it.

Re: I hate thiefs!!

That sucks. I lived in Tempe for 2.5 years and had my DD broken into twice and vandalized another time. Only one of those events happened when I lived in an apartment complex, the other two happened in a quiet neighborhood on a street with hardly any traffic.

About 20 years ago, I had the master cylinder stolen off of my Blazer. Takes a lot of balls to pull crap like that.

Re: I hate thiefs!!

that's a first. I've heard of cats being stolen but never a starter. Sorry to hear that. If I was replacing the starter bolts on my new 454 I would have let you have the old ones.

Talking Re: I hate thiefs!!

Man it sucks that you have to buy a new starter but admit it. It is a little bit funny. That took some time to get that out on a big block in the dark.
