I was at the dealer test drivng my bullitt and i saw some guy looking at the car i was buying. i promptly notified my salesman and he told me no problem, you are the owner that car is no longer for sale. well after our conversation, i went out and the guy looking at the car struck up a conversation. Come to find out, he was actually up there a week or so ago looking to buy the car, but really wanted a DHG, so he went to NC and purchased his.
he told me that the factory ground effects were stolen off his car before it left the transport truck. well that was disturbing news to say the least. Back in March, my probe was stolen for the stereo along, and i have never looked at people the same. now that i have a limited production, car and to add to that i have the most limited color, i am worried about theives. I know how everyone wants the gas cap, and body effects so here is my plan to keep my car intact.
1. i am striping the screws that hold on the gas cap, i pland to just drill them smooth. The cap has no reason to come off, it is does, there must be a problem.
2. i am also going to take the dremel and grind down the screws that hold on the body molding around the bottom of the car.
3. a well hidden killswitch, i repear well hidden.
4. a top flight alarm, probably one with pager notification and proximity sensors. I am prepared to do what ever it takes to protect my baby. I know tooooooo many people all in 5 months time who have had their car broken into, or stolen.
5. common sense, there are some places the the bullitt will not be parked. i dont just mean bad neighborhoods, i mean places like the track, car shows, etc.
6. as always, i will never turn down my street it there is a car infront of me, behind me, or coming up the road on the opposite side. I DONT TRUST ANYONE.
I would like to do something to protect the wheels more, but the way they are designed, all you need is a pair of vice grips, and off the locks come.
the things people do for their cars!!!!
have i forgoten anything?
