damn,you're lucky.Hey at least you have your g body still with you,with war scars then having it completely taken.I may look into getting a kill switch someday,they seem to pay for itself and the whole car

That's ****in super shitty dude, but at least they didn't get the car...

My 442 was stolen before I bought it... luckily the thermostat was sticking, and it over heated and vapor locked, and they just left it.
The owner got it back a couple months later and I bought it.
There's still a hole in my passenger door next to the lock cylinder... which is stupid, cause you can get in through the cracks in the weather stripping with a coat hanger in about 10 seconds...

i think the kill switch was the best thing ive ever bought for it. im buying a viper 2 way alarm for it on sat. can i put any g body steering column it :?:

 

[Blake442]

Any from '82-'88...

Only thing to watch for is the wiper switch, and whether your car and the donor column have the 2 speed or delay switches.

I feel for ya man. Guy tried to break into my '86 but had the battery out to start the tractor Must be destiny that I have this car!
Maybe try looking into a steel collar?

Looks like a real amature job, like mentioned before it only takes a few seconds to pop the door lock without the damage to the door panel or lock.
Also the collumn looks like it was broke on the wrong side to start the car. Just need to remove the ign cylinder.

It was broken on the right side to steal it, good thing you had that switch, also i would get the big *ss red column lock so they will just walk by instead of busting into it, the deterent factor just isn't there on a kill switch.

OMG!! That really sucks!! I had an '87 300zx that these bastahd kids broke into...couldn't get out the stereo, because I bolt them down!! Turns out they broke into a bunch of other cars...cops caught them, but denied breaking my window and putting pry marks on the dash. I'd like to put a pry mark...
Anywho...I leave the doors unlocked...it's smashed, crashed and rashed...battery is dead...No one wants to steal it...LOL
Where are these collars you speak of?
Sorry to hear about it Monte...Hope you get it squared away...
