Stolen Car Alert: 240SX in Pittsburgh, PA

This from RacePA. Just tryin to help a brother by spreading the word out.

My friend had his 93 240sx at a shop in Pittsburgh (Euro Styles East on Babcock Blvd) waiting for a new turbo manifold. He called the shop today to find out that the car has not been there for almost a week and a half, and they just thought he came and picked it up during the night. If anyone see’s anything similar to this stuff for sale on forums or eBay, let me know. Thanks guys.

Phone conversation with the shop:

QUOTE
Nick: Hey this is Nick just to give you a heads up I’m going to pick up my 240
SHOP: its not here dude, we thought you or your buddy picked it up(he was at the shop by himself, and had no “buddy” with him)
Nick: Please tell me you are kidding
SHOP: nope, you should call your insurance company

So these guys had the only set of keys and assumed he just picked it up…even when they told him to call when he was coming down, so that someone would be there to help him out. It was behind the shop, in front of a fence so if you didn’t know the car was there, you couldn’t find it.

I edited the addy, It used to say downtown Pittsburgh

10

wow that sucks. Kinda looks like an ontario license plate :dunno:

11

or maybe minnesota?

12

o well excuse me then.

I’m suprised they were working on that car. Be_Rad and I stopped down there one day in an RSX and they talked all kinds of shit… they talk about anything non-german like its a total rust bucket or something.

its a nice car though. hope he gets it back

13

over seas now

14

Whhaatttt?!!?

15

too bad thats a nice car and all he has left to remember it are the pics

16

Yeah honestly as bad as it sounds its been gone for like two weeks now its gone. Theres no way of recovering it now

17

yeah thats the sad truth, by now its probably in 1000 peices

18

whitey…didn’t you just start a project 240sx ?? hmmmmm where were you two weeks ago ???

19

:ugh: I feel for the guy. All of that money down the drain. Plus if it was around 2wks that it was gone, who knows where it could be or pieces to it. Just kinda strange that the shop would’ve thought that he would’ve just stopped and picked it up unless it was already finished.

that 2 weeks issue is going to make the cops and insurance company turn this into a giant headache. well… i guess this shop won’t be seeing any business from anyone soon… i mean who see’s a car is gone out of your lot behind the building and doesn’t even call to confirm the owner took it. lazy
