This was just sickening to watch I just barely made it through this. Whenever I take my classic out I'm paranoid about leaving it anywhere. This is one of the things that I fear the most. Just the fact of them cutting the locks on the trailer to get the car is really on a different level.

@@jdsmith556 I have another system very similar to lojack. The minute you start the car up I know the second you started it or if you choose to tow it it knows when it's being pulled and just like LoJack wherever that car is at any second I know where it will be. I also know how fast you're going with my car because I have the system set at a certain speed which is how I caught a mechanic blasting down the road after he did service on it I walked right over to the manager and told him watch this. But he came back he completely denied it and we showed him what he did he was so speechless. My service was free after that including any damages it may have suffered thankfully there were none.

I had my 2007 Lexus ES350 stolen out of my driveway and I now get up every morning and look to see if my replacement car is still there. it was a traumatic experience. I also had both cars fully insured and now have a hidden security system that will notify the local police if the car goes 50 ft. without a special keyfob I keep separate from the keyfob for the car..

Not a chevelle, chevelle are just normal street cars, and this one is a good looking car, however this car is definently not valued at 300k. He probably spent 300k to get it to that amount, but it is not worth that much.

In that situation why not disconnect the battery and take it with you. I know batteries are like 20 lbs, and weak people would have to cart it. But what are the chances that a car thief is carrying an extra battery just in case? Answer is, they're not. If your driving around in a 100k+ car and have to park it at a SAMs Club for some retarded reason... take the fucking battery with you. Fuck, you could even take a wheel off and put a spare without a tire, they wont get far. Detachable steering wheel... lock the emergency brake... so many things you could do, not necessarily prevent in every case, but make it harder. Thieves rely on time... the longer it takes, the more likely they will give up. This guy probably doesn't even lock the front door to his house... AND YES, If I had to park a 100k+ car in a SAMs parking lot, in a trailer or not, I'll take the battery with me, and a couple fuses... just in case.

Chevelles are a dime a dozen as far as muscle cars go. The only way its 300k, is if it was an all original yanko with a rare paint code/interior color combo, year, and a stick. The other way, would be if it was a full blown race car build, whether track or drag with everything custom reengineered. Prolly 60k give or take

I know how it feels to have your ride stolen after you have put countless hours of labor into it along with the price of all the custom parts.. I traveled from Ohio with five other friends to the Mardi gras in 1976 with my new customized chevy van only to have it ripped off while were on Bourbon Street partying. Had to return to Ohio on a Greyhound Bus all bummed out and heart broken. Insurance did pay for almost everything but not my labor and everyone's personal items. I bought another to replace it and started over. Not as easy to do with a classic car. You just can't go to the dealer and order another.

Coming from someone who loves the 70 chevelle, that car is not worth $300k. Probably $60k at most. But can definitely understand why the owner is upset. Id be too.

If it was worth $300,000 it wouldn't have been easy to steal. I have installed multiple kill switches, a brake lock and motion detectors in a vehicle worth much less, because it was worth a lot to me honestly

The car isn’t worth $300k, and even if it was, insurance probably would have required a tracker to be installed. I bought an amazing tracker for just $120 for my ‘69 Firebird. Sorry your car got stolen, but don’t BS the value of it.

If that was my car I would buy extra stuff so nobody can use old school tactics to steal it like breaking open the steering wheel column.... Wrap that column in extra metal. Then install a hidden power switch that only you know the location to so the engine can turn over then also have a hidden kill switch.

A non numbers matching Chevelle that's been "resto-modded" is NOT worth $300k. Maybe $40k if a brain dead bidder gets on it at Barrett-Jackson Auction. An honest estimate is $30-35k.

IF this guy thinks his Chevelle is "valued" at $300k, he must be figuring his labor was $200/hr. Something is only "worth" what someone is willing to pay for it. In this case the car might be "worth" $100k, tops

Maybe he had it insured for $300k. An LS swapped, customized '70 Chevelle might cost $100k to build if you can't do any of the work yourself. But at the end of the day a car like that is worth $50-60k at best. Of course if Grundy agrees on the value and then it gets "Stolen", the guy gets a check for $300k!!!
