Stolen Frosted pewter XY GT Replica

[RAREV8]

I just thought that I'd post this- Someone might have posted it some time ago when it was on Crimestoppers. Perford mag ran a special on this car that was stolen from a locked garage in Victoria.
Apparently, the car was recently completed but the family had been unable to pay their premium (hence it was locked in a locked garage) as they had to pay some hefty medical bills due to their son having a serious heart condition.

The car was to be put to work for weddings,formals, etc in order to raise some well-needed income. It had previously been used for tis purpose but users were asked to donate money to the hospital that had saved thei sons life.

A low stunt, I'm sure you'll agree, so to all of you in Vic, keep your eyes peeled for it as it has been sighted there. It used to run the plates "HAMMAR" but was last seen with different plates.

I'm sure that Mark and Bianca would be very grateful if people on this site could help them by keeping an eye out for this special car. For more info, read page 82 in Perford mag.

Yeah I am sure this is a re-post, but worth it.

I remember that being posted.... i'm afraid if it hasn't been found by now, their chances are fairly slim....

Cheers mate, as I said, I only just read it in the latest Perford mag and anyway, the car still hasn't been recovered and some ar#ehole is enjoying it.

If anyone is more competent than I, maybe they could post a picture of it (or a similar one ) as I have received a couple of PM's requesting this.

A sad tale, and i wish them well.
However this story is getting a bit long in the tooth. To be perfectly frank you could be forgiven if you thought Harry M Miller was their publicity agent... that car gets more coverage than the Australian cricket team in England!
There are hundreds of cars stolen daily, and a lot of extremely sad tales around them too, their stories are no less or more "news" worthy, yet we dont hear about them every day, week and month on an ongoing basis.....

Yes if this is legit than it is a sad story but this so called vehicle has been spotted numarous time's since the theft and with the same plate's on to I might add, something doesn't add up, no crook would be dumb enough to drive around with the same plate's on it, it was spotted heading toward's Echuca and then a few week's latter back in Melb, and the person who spotted it in Melb was a friend to the owner, now why didn't they follow it, I know I sure as hell would follow the vehicle if it were one of my mate's ride's???????.

Especially after its been on every TV show, every website and in every mag for the last 3 months..
Good point too, i've been thinking this for months, the "mystery" spottings all over the place, this car is more elusive than Elvis.. Something just doesn't add up..

Didn't it show up at Heathcote, with the plates and have a few runs? Considering Heathcote get your licence number off you before you race, something is up.

I must be completely blind.....I have never even heard of this car until today!!

Sorry for the boring, repeated post in that case.... : It does beg the question why Perford are still running it though.
