I had a 70 Nova SS stolen from me....(This was maybe 20 yrs ago)
It was shortly after I put my new aftermarket wheels and tires on it...
I was liveing in an apartment on the lake at that time...and worked downtown Detroit I was useing the mrs escort to go to work and she used my nova...(She worked 3 miles from home.)
Anyway long story short...It was gone for 4 yrs and I was about to give up on it ever showing up...
The mrs and I were on our harley: Cruiseing Gratiot to get an Ice Cream..
Out of the corner of my eye I see this Nova go by going the other way..
So out of curiosity. I turned around and chased after it to see if it was mine....And Lo and behold..it was! Some punk Fn Kid was driveing it...
We caught him at the Light at 11 and GRatiot..and I pulled my Harley right in front of him jumped off and Yanked his Butt out the friggn window..
There was tons of traffic and people were blown there horns and bitchn cause I was holdn up traffic...
There was 1 other guy and a girl in the car with him!...The mrs beat the girl to a pulp! So obviously the cops were called and the towing company came. They arrested all 3 of them.When the cop asked why the girl and the driver were all bloody...We said they fell down ...and the kids never contested it!
Heres the irony to the whole story as well...
Turns out the Tow truck driver turned out to be my mrs estranged father! That her mom divorced 20 yrs before!
Talk about fate?...We both couldnt believe our eyes...
To see her dad...and getting the Nova Back!
