STOLEN Car update

[Rich Deede <rdeed@UDel.Edu>]

Well, I finally got myself a ride down in to maryland to see the car for
the first time since it was stolen.  I must just say that it was quite
depressing to see the car in such shabby condition.  It had one teardrop
on the right rear and the front was resting on like 5 stacked pieces of
wood, grinding in to the rotors.  The hood was all nicked up and little
dents in the front lip of the hood.  One fog light was completely smashed
and just hanging there.  The drivers side door handle is gone, and the
arear around the door handle all banged up. The front 16v emblem on the
grill is gone.  My nice new german liscence plate is gone.  The dash is
cracked and the Cd player is gone.  The steering column is ripped open and
a lot of frayed wires are coming out from there. The rear of the car is
resting on the exhaust tips and might be bent..not sure.  Then of course
my new wheels are gone, and there is indeed a lot of oil underneath the
car. The hood seems to be lying wierd, one side is flush with the fenders
while the other side sits lower then the fenders.  When I popped the hood,
there is oil sprayed everywhere....I couldn't make out the source of the
oil just yet.  And about 25 CD's are missing to top it off.  Oh and the
rear bumper has a nice size crack in it now right on the driver side
corner.  I must say that car looked pitiful...kinda like it belonged in a
scrap yard which really got me mad.  So, we'll just have to see what
insurance will cover.  

Thank god they didn't take my euro-lights, stressbars, leather seats, new
steering wheel, floor jack,2 teardrops, speakers and the other 2 cases of
CD's that were in the trunk.

I'll keep you all informed,
