It's back, officially, in this country....the stolen car that is. We got to see it this morning...It. Is. A. Mess. Wow, I have to say that it was somewhat surreal to see it again, after pretty much giving up hope on ever getting it back. The guy at the shop seemed really cool, and was very helpful. By the time we'd gotten there, around 8:00am, he'd already started a list on what needed to be fixed. It's a pretty long list. Just a couple of things include new bumpers (both front and back were pretty banged up) of course the radio and battery, that we already knew about...the driver's side window seal (where they broke into the car) the windshield seal (it looks like they tried to get the windshield out...) all of the hubcaps are busted up, and the tires were all switched out, including the spare, which is gone. To top it off, it looks like it had been sitting in the impound lot down in Rosarito for the last 6 weeks with the windows down. The interior was absolutely covered in thick reddish brown dust. The guy at the shop tells us that we'll have it back in two weeks. And that it will look better than ever...keep your fingers crossed again for us.

Wooohoooo!!! I don't think it looks as bad as I thought it would, but they sure have alot of cleaning to do. I hope the insurance covers all the work!!
Wow! Pretty amazing that you actually got it back.
I CANNOT wait to see the finished product. The suspense is already killing me!
