warrenfromtonny Posted August 15, 2012 Report Posted August 15, 2012 I walk out this morning to go to work and find a balaclava where i parked my car last night. Details: Model: KE11 Plates: KE-1970 Colour: Grey primer on body, roof and bonnet in the factory mid grey. Wheels: Has hayashi streets on the front, two stock wheels in red lip and black center on the back. Interior: Black with red front throw over seat covers. Features: Drivers side guard and door have a large hit running down them to the rear quarter. This isn't exactly a blend in car, it is easy to identify that's why i think it will be in pieces pretty quickly so if everyone could keep an eye out or if they see any of the items up for sale please let me (0four30 3two2 7three3) or the police directly know. Police have been notified. Quote
Bowler Posted August 15, 2012 Report Posted August 15, 2012 (edited) Sorry to hear Matt, will keep am eye out. That's so sh_t though Edited August 15, 2012 by Bowler Quote
altezzaclub Posted August 15, 2012 Report Posted August 15, 2012 Sorry to hear that, they obviously don't intend to keep it. Hopefully it was an easy ride home and it will be sitting in some back street in a trashy part of town. Quote
warrenfromtonny Posted August 15, 2012 Author Report Posted August 15, 2012 (edited) Don't like my chances. Had it parked out the back of the house out of view. They knew what they were looking for, had a replacement guard stolen from behind it 6 months ago. I think it may be reborn as a track car or something similar.

silverra23 Posted August 15, 2012 Report Posted August 15, 2012 That is shit, I will ask our TCCA members to keep an eye out for you. Quote
JimL Posted August 16, 2012 Report Posted August 16, 2012 That sucks man. I'm out east, I'll keep my eyes peeled. And i'm sure most people on here are always looking at online auctions for bits and pieces. Good luck, hope you can get her back in one piece! Quote

Ke10Rob Posted August 16, 2012 Report Posted August 16, 2012 I meant for the pure and simple fact that the market for this kind of car is very small and the community is pretty close knit. How many ke10's you reckon are in Australia? Quote

67Rolla-Ken Posted August 17, 2012 Report Posted August 17, 2012 I'm always trolling for parts, I'll keep an eye out and let you know if anything suddenly appears. Quote
warrenfromtonny Posted August 21, 2012 Author Report Posted August 21, 2012 Hi just an update. Got the car back tonight, was found not far from my house in an alleyway... with a parking ticket on it. Well done Darebin City Council, yes i leave my car unlocked with a jimmied ignition in alleyways all the time (sarcasm). All in tact, missing the cd player from my glove box and tacho from bellow my dash. Only damage to the ignition wires and barrel and the boot lock. Still had all my wheels on it and my tools where in the car also. Pretty happy with the result considering i had kissed it goodbye. Will be taking it off the road and bringing it back on club reg in the future when i can restore it to the condition these corollas deserve. Like to thank everyone for there support and concern in the relation to the car, and i will be hanging around to keep an eye on things. Will post up some pics when i get around to completing it. Thanks Again Matt Quote
