This yellow two seater sand rail was stolen about a week ago in north west Peoria. It has a 1776 engine, yellow with a small back seat. A set of paddel tires was also stolen along with the rail. We believe the thief is local due to the fact that he knew exactley where to look. This was no random theft. If you know or have seen this sand rail please call Scott at 602-689-1944.

My white 1965 Notchback was stolen from out front of my apartment building in Pasadena, CA in the early morning of July 11th. if anyone comes across it or has information please contact the police and me, Jared: 626-676-4498, email: [email protected]

It is a very unique Notchback in beautiful condition and is quite identifiable:

White oustide with grey interior, lowered, shaved door handles, custom headlights swapped from a vw bus, replaced steering column from a toyota, custom racing steering wheel, custom speakers mounted under dash next to the doors with subwoofer under passenger seat and amp under back seat, custom upholstery, custom bucket seats, custom back seat with arm rest in the middle. custom dash and VDO gauges, stock 1500cc engine with dual carbs.

It had an Idaho license plate on the back, and I also had various band and skateboard stickers on the back windows and back windshield, and when stolen, there were a couple silk-screens and art supplies in the back seat.

The lack of door handles and the slanted form of the customized headlights are the most identifiable, practically unmistakeable features from the outside.

From the broken glass it appears they either broke the passenger window or wing window to enter the vehicle.

A piece of me was stolen with that car. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

I just came across this in my files where a good buddy of the dune buggy archives website, had a family dune buggy stolen. The number for the local police is posted on the pic. Please help Dave Haskins if you have seen a buggy that looks like this. It could be painted nay color by now, but, look under the hood and anywhere you can see the original gelcoat. Thanks!!!

Silver 23 window stolen 9 dec 05 from Islington, London.

If you are looking at 23 windows, please see below, don't buy this one and let me help you buy a legit one with a £7500 contribution!

I'm afraid the pictures during respray are the most recent I have.

OK, I'm not quite certain how this will work internationally, but I want my bus back and I'm willing to pay, obviously the sooner I get it back, the less it is likely to have been pulled apart. So, £7500 or equivalent will go to the person who can give myself or the police information that leads to recovery of the vehicle. At some point in the next 30 years I will find it, but I would rather it was sooner than later, there are so many things that have been changed on it that unless someone just puts it into storage never to see the light of day again, it will have to be sold. (If it has been messed up then reward will drop in proportion)

So, key facts that should at least be good pointers:

1. the chassis number (in engine bay) is 228 234
2. the 'body number' stamped directly into the bulkhead behind the passenger seat is 213137.
3. this makes manufacture date Jan 1957
4. the entire front panel of the bus has been replaced - and here is the distinctive part - anyone inspecting the vehicle if offered for sale will see the much later fish eye indicator holes have been welded up – or perhaps filled over by the time you see it.
further points listed under 'wanted' ad as this does not allow enough text.
If you have any information, it will be treated in complete confidence, I just want to get the vehicle back before it changes beyond recognition. You contact myself or Islington police - main switchboard +44 20 7704 1212

After learning your desperation about your stolen VWs I placed this ad to try and help you. Always provide you vehicles VIN #, license plate, motor # and always keep a folder with all of your info and pictures of interior, exterior, and motor compartment in sets of three. Always register your car with your local police and then register with your highway patrol they are the ones on charge of stolen cars . Also provide a picture to each department. There may be a fee to register with the highway patrol; it's worth it. You would be surprised to see how many vw owners do not keep a proper documented cars; also always keep all receipts of parts you are buying for insurance proof of value , let's get with the program to stop these criminals from taking our cars and parts !.

In 1994 my Chopped Top was dropped off at the shop (Virginia Beach Bugs). I was giving my 2110cc motor to the shop in exchange for a stock 1600cc motor with chrome dressings. Plus I paid the shop over $700.00, left for 3 months in the Navy (wife keep in touch w/ the shop). Came back my car was gone, they said... but in passing the shop in a Navy van I seen a Chopped Top 2 years later, same wedge look painted a different color (rusty metallic). Last known position was Virginia Beach Bugs in Virginia Beach, VA.

Update: Virginia Beach Bugs has closed down and relocated. The car is still flagged as stolen.

1957 VW Bug with black cloth sunroof stolen: towed out of my driveway in East San Jose, CA on Nov. 20, 2003 during the early morning hours. Paint is blue/bluegreen metallic, decklid has been painted a medium green enamel which as now become oxodized. There is a patch of gray primer on the left rear fender and a smaller gray primer patch on the right rear fender. The interior of the car is black and newly upholstered and carpeted. CA license is 3ETR481, August 2004.

The car, bonnet and decklid were locked. The bonnet was additionally locked with a U-shaped bike lock through the handle on the bonnet and the front bumper. A "Club" steering wheel lock was locked onto the steering wheel. A window on the passenger side was broken during the theft.

I have owned the car since 1968, it was my first car and it is much loved and missed. I am offering a reward for any information leading to the return of the car.

The pictures of the car are correct in every respect except for the decklid, rear fender primer patches and license plate (which is the original plate in the pictures). Front plate frame still says "Isenberg" which was the original dealer in Merced. The color in the pictures is pretty darn close, its only slightly greener. You don't see the green, it just mutes the blue color somewhat.

This fine 67 Deluxe was taken in the early hours of Tuesday, Dec 16th from the Westside of Long Beach, Ca. from Face Lift : 1749 Santa Fe at PCH. It was under the care of Julio Monroy of Convertible World who had taken a sublet of Face Lift while his landlord was bringing Julio's L.B. Blvd. location up to code. Some finishing touches were being performed as Julio and his fellas could get to them. We were sooo close. Almost two years and countless hours of work already in. Please keep a look out for the parts as they filter through the southland and beyond.
Parts of note:
Hella euro. tail and fluted head lights,
Six pop-out and two driver/pass. windows meticulously restored, New 67 only handles inside and out,
Custom and "plated" exaust, boxes and tubes,
New Freeway tranny, new 1641 with 40 webers,
Wheels are body color, as are VW emblems on hub caps,
Lots of TLC.

Rodney is a retired LBPO and HIS fellas are working on the case, but realisticly what can the police do now.

I'm spreading the word and keep the faith.

Thanks to The Samba our customer's stolen 23-window deluxe was recovered! Unfortunately, it is now just a primered shell since it was completely parted out. Maybe you can help make this bus whole, again. If you went to the Pomona Swap Meet between April and October 2003, please let us know if you purchased or may have seen any of these items. All items would have been for an early (1961) transporter.
The following were all items that are presumed to have been sold in So. California (the bus was found in Victorville, CA): White aftermarket Wolfgang SAFARI WINDOWS with chrome latches and slides (the wingnuts were also chromed which is a unique feature), very clean 1600 dual port ENGINE with dual Weber 34 carburetors and doghouse oil cooler/ original bus single tip exhuast (this was chromed)/ all tins painted semi-flat black, TRANSMISSION - extremely detailed and clean/ shiny gloss black on axles and trans./ one piece swing axle boots with crimped boot clamps/ even the drain plugs were sandblasted and clear coated/ possible that the swing plates were attached or sold along with it since they are now missing off the bus which is rare, ROOF RACK - original style wood slat with ladder/ roof rack had German braided fuel hose where the roof rack mounts, Set of interior DOOR PANELS with chrome trim - light gray along with the back corner panels which were thick black cardboard, 4-Coker wide white wall TIRES - 205-75-15, MIDDLE SEAT - unupholstered full length bench, chrome WHEEL RINGS - 15 inch, CENTER MAT and full CARPET SET - gray, chrome VW EMBLEM.
Any information is greatly appreciated!

Photo is not the actual car, just a representation of the Horizon Blue color.

My 57 bug was stolen from my driveway at home in Phoenix AZ 9/7/03. It was horizon blue, a light blue-gray. Oval window, had an added in oil temp gage in the dash & a couple extra holes too, pretty stock (36 HP) except mid 60s style tail light assys. Had it over 35 yrs - like a family member - suspect stolen for parts(?). Contact Dave M. at [email protected] and / or Police.

Our black 1950's oval window beetle was stolen on Saturday night, August 19th, 1974, off highway 60 west, heading north on highway 88 out of Clovis NM. Long gone, but not forgotten.

This car was stolen in the early morning hours Saturday June 14th, 2003 from Tucson, Arizona. At the time it had a dead battery and a flat tire so it was most likely towed. This car has a one piece fiberglass front end and flared baja fenders. It also has burgandy wheels and side bumpers. The interior of the car has nice grey and black cloth seats except for the drivers seat which was old and torn up (the nice drivers seat was not in the car at the time). The car was primer grey it was painted several years ago with epoxy primer which has begun to wear through in places. Any information leading to the recovery of this vehicle will be generously rewarded. If you have any info you can call me @ 520-444-2656 or call the police. Thanks. Josh
