STOLEN 37yr old CLASSIC CAR FROM ACCRINGTON!!!
 

Hi all, i dont know if this is right or not, but need to get as much publicity as possible!

My Classic 1971 Saab 99 chrome bumper model in white was stolen in the early hours of 16/01/09. The car had just undergone light restoration and come back onto the roads in accrington in December, and ive been using it since..
The car reg is DHW299K, and is my pride and joy as i did all the work myself, so there is alot of sentimental value there. Along with it only havin 74500mls on the clock and me being the 3rd owner in 37yrs. If anyone knows one of these cars it looks out of place in the modern world and there is only a handful in the country left..

This is a photo of it... Picasa Web Albums - paul - Saab Pics

Anyone with any info please get in contact on 07725107684 in no answer please leave a message

thanks!in advance for any help

I'll keep my eyes open for it, hate to say this but a car like that will most likely have been stolen to use as spares or some idle git to lazy to restore their own will just swap id

Will keep a look out for you, swines arnt they? hope you get it back, and the thieves are dealt with properly, think the former is more likely than the latter though!

Hey Paul
I hope you get the car back - people who are not into cars just don't realise how much work and dedication go into keeping a classic car on the road.
Make sure you regularly check Ebay for it being advertised.

if not, send them your picture.
I am amazed that cars cannot be found using the ANPR (Number plate recognition).
I would like to see an ANPR camera on every street corner, if your car was stolen it could be accurately tracked but unfortunately there is no money to be made from decent, honest and hard working folk, except when they exceed the speed limit by a little bit.
