Kinda Scared to drive mine around when It's finished, But there's really not that many In my Area since I live in a Beach/Tourist type town well nearby cities. I'm in a small township like 4400 people.

What's some suggestions you guys have to a new driver too lookout on not to get his truck stolen or protect it better?

I don’t leave my Chevelle sitting around too much where I can’t see it. It’s sad but true, you have to watch your stuff.
What year Chevelle? I never had one. Pops had a couple + Novas.

Only Nova I had was a 76.

It kinda surprises me that anyone knows how to steal an old vehicle anymore.

I keep picturing some guy in a hoodie holding a laptop standing beside the key only door and crank windows and wondering why his theft program is not working. LOL

Like those car jacking stories where the thief jumps in, finds a stick shift and clutch, then runs away.

That's true since a lot of the older vehicles were Manuals. Majority of the trucks are Auto though. Easy Targets.

Thank you. I’m at Higgins Lake.
Oh, nice! I'm out by US-31 Grand Haven and Holland.

Can't wait for this Upeak in 50 - 60s whether they are showing! Not sure about you but I'm ready to start on my vehicles again! lol
By Chance, you know any old Junkyards that still keep the oldies and such?
