Hello all!

I am a semi new member in need of some serious help. My fc is missing, has been for some time. Here is the abridged version of my story, just to cut to the chase:

Some time ago, I was living with my mother in Orlando, Fl. I had an 86 white fc that was my pride and joy. Unfortunately, there was a problem with compression, and i had sent it to a shop on O.B.T. called, Fuego, right across from the 7-eleven that is there (incase anyone was familiar with the area.) Months on end they continually put off fixing my car. Months and months later, i decided to to drop in to just take my car elsewhere. Low and behold, the business was gone and it had become a car dealership. The new owners did not know the whereabouts of the previous owners, nor did they know what happened to all of the cars that where there (perhaps towed.) I still have the title and would very much like a way to find my car. I carfaxed it and it doesnt tell me much. the last owner registered for the vin was me, and that is all it says. If anyone knows of another way i can track my car or to search if it may be in an impound, please help me out. I live in NYC now but have ppl. that can go to locations for me. Any or all help is appreciated. Thanks guys!

 

report it stolen?

 

i tried to, but they were saying it may take some time, and something dealing with receipts of whatever from this place. thing is, i never got any receipts, because work was never done. then when i go to check it out...gone. so i have to do some self DT work. i just want my car bak..

 

Sorry to hear about all that. I would guess that it is long gone and is probably some body's roller now or in a scrap yard. Not to be negative but I don't think you have a chance in getting it back.

 

Not that I'm near NY, but do you have pictures of the car?

 

unfortunately someone with a wrecked or rotted bodied fc probably swapped their engine and vins in the car. if you had the x owner of the businesses name, you could try private investigator things to find him. mad pi s on the web. best of luck though.

john ny

 

**** dude.. i would try to get a lawyer or something... i mean thats just bullshit..

 

dont have any pics of it unfortunately. considered a p.i. for the job. kinda doin a lil bit of recon right now myself. hell yea it suks. i fear that it may have become someones roller or the other things mentioned as well. really does suck...but thanks for the support guys!

 

mods please close thread

thank everyone one for any help. got a nother proj. to complete.

 

You should still look into the vin number to see if its been registered anywhere.

 

wow so desperate then poof onto another project like that? wow this thread is full of failure

 

Very strange

 

dAMM that sucks did the place have a number or somthing or look up the name of the place.

 

someone made out with a free FC

Probably easier to buy another cheap S4 4lug then dealing with trying to find this one =(

 

Post this in your regional section; you'll likely generate some interest there. RX7 people are good people - we look out for each other.

 

That's just greasy. I can't believe they didn't call you and tell you to come get your car.

 

we'll probably never hear from this kid ever again
