| "I am the original owner of this car and I bought sight unseen back in March 1987 over the telephone through a company that deals with the company I work for. Car was delivered to my work for me and I signed paperwork to drive home. Car was stolen in January 1998 at about 2AM but was recovered same day at about 9AM. The crooks did not take anything from the car since heard that they may have thought car was equipped with a Lo-Jack Vehicle Recovery System. Car was found only about 2 miles from my house. Once my love was back in my hands I took to the body shop for repairs that were needed from minor damage during the theft. At that time I determined that I wanted whole car stripped to metal and re-painted, all new weather stripping throughout, new carpeting and windows re-tinted darker. Note personalized plate 'AERO CPE'" | |
