MK2 Steve 1 Posted October 3, 2010 I'm totally saddened and shocked, what an absolute awful tragedy. I felt sick when I saw the photo's. I'm really gutted for you mate. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John the painter 2 Posted October 3, 2010 It sickens me to see pictures like this cant even to begin to feel how you feel mate.What a waste of a fantastic looking car.I dont think even they know how much heartache they have actually caused or actually care .Hope you can rebuild it and its shell is not too distorted.Good thing about these old fords there is not too much to them compared to todays cars so if distortion isnt too bad a rebuild is possible,done it myself before.Good luck mate Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FredTransit 0 Posted October 29, 2010 gutted for you they should have there car burnt if they have one, if not there dads, then put in prison,but no doubt they will get away with an asbo, because they are to young and it was not there fault, only this week over here in perth a 16 year old was found dead in a burnt out car,they stole it and set it on fire but his mate lit the petrol before he had time to get out,and toasted him.and most people are saying good job, apart from the doo gooders,if he wasn,t out at 2 in the morning stealing cars he would still be alive. Here here to that! Sorry to see this, and see the pics. My punishment would be, if convicted, to be carried out at an appropriate later date. As soon as the offender registered a car, send a uniformed officer round. After knocking on the offender's door, his or her vehicle would be identified, and the owner/offender would be made to stand and watch whilst the vehicle was systematically damaged. Every panel dented,all the glass broken, tyres and interior slashed. That done, the offender would be handed an official document to state the original offence was now seen as being a finished matter, and no insurance claim or criminal proceedings (against the officer) could be considered. Perhaps this could be licensed out to private companies, like Bailiffs are licensed? Anybody want to join my officially licensed and Police sanctioned retribution company?

glen 0 Posted October 29, 2010 our last 2 albums have tracks about vigilanteism.....food for thought!!! this year, we've been robbed (£3k worth of mountain bikes..i like my bikes, my dt125 supermoto) been burgled twice and someone stole our flymo........not a peep from the old bill, just a crime reference no to give to the insurance company. so they have a case no to argue about and try and get thrown out before they have to pay out!!! time to catch these fookers ourselves? obviously not condoning this sort of justice on a public forum............... :chain: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
