She was stolen
Our girl was kidnapped in between 4pm & 8pm Sunday night at work. She was sitting approximately 100ft from the entrance for the ER ( I work in a hospital). There were no cameras in this area though most thought it was safe considering the proximity to the ER which is also where the security office is.
I'm not quite sure why she was taken considering the shape she was in. The clearcoat was coming off over the entire car. The top has a couple little tears. The light covers were all fogged plus the tint was all peeling off. Oh yea, I forgot. The top was so out of alignment coupled with the rear quarter windows and the driver side window not working, there was about a 2" gap between the rear quarter windows and the driver/passenger windows. So to say she was in bad shape, cosmetically speaking, is an understatement.
The cop said that it may have been stolen to commit other crimes. There was also a Ford struck that they attempted to steal but it had an antitheft mechanism that shut the engine off.
Regardless of how battered and bruised she was, we always had it in our hearts on eventually restoring her. She was the car that my wife drove up when I first met her and what we drove when we first started to get to know each other over 8 years ago
So, So long girl. Maybe we will meet again so I can have the opportunity to restore you to your former glory.

If there anything that I can do to help via this site just ask. I can add a little blurb on my Mustang home page to ask people to keep an eye out for it, include the VIN, etc. I'll keep it there for as long as you would like.
I hope you find it or it finds you again.
I never really expected to get her back especially in one piece.
That's what I call a Christmas present
Car is still at the tow yard because they wanted to charge us $370 for the towing fees plus the days that it has been sitting there. We had to wait for the insurance company to chime in because we definitely do not have that kind of money right now.
The car is not drivable due to the ignition being smashed. The insurance company is towing the car to one of their places to be evaluated to determine whether the car can be repaired which I'm sure it can
Once they have done their assessment, we can take it to get repaired. I'm hoping they will tow it to the mechanics shop so we don't have to pay for the towing since we can't afford it.
All along, I was kind of hoping this was a prank for overhaulin lol. Ah what I would give for that to be true lol
I'm hoping the tranny is still good as I'm afraid they will total her if the tranny is gone.
