On the morning of August 8th, multiple Hurst/Olds were stolen from the parking lot of the hotel that was hosting the club's national meet in Indy. Anyone who has any information, whether it is hearing of parts becoming available, or seeing a posting for one for sale, please call the police and/or notify us with whatever you may have. These cars were 1979, 1983 and 1984 models. The photos below are not the actual cars stolen but identical in looks.

If you go to car shows, cruises or flea markets, please keep this in mind. It wasn't your car this time, but it could be the next time. Wouldn't you want everyone helping out? The cars were taken from the Wingate Hotel on Rockville road in Indy. Thank you for any help. If you are in a different city and seeing this ad, please copy and paste to other locations.

Thank you from the Hurst/Olds Club of America

I hate a friggin theif!

carbon guy · 08-09-2009, 08:25 PM

That really sucks too, I heard that on the news last night. I sure hope they find who did this. They say there was few security cameras around that may see who it was.
Let's keep our eyes open.

**Ratmotor** · 08-09-2009, 08:26 PM

3 cars at once? Definitely a planned rip off most likely to order. I bet they are in a trailer headed south of the border or in a container for over seas.

Death Trap13 · 08-09-2009, 08:38 PM

Strange, seems like it would be hard to move that kind of stuff. Sucks to hear though.

Tman · 08-09-2009, 08:38 PM

Crap, the older one MIGHT belong to a pal, any idea what states they were from?

**rd martin** · 08-09-2009, 10:32 PM

will keep eye open around chicago area

Chaoticcustoms · 08-09-2009, 10:48 PM

My Aunts is tucked neatly in her garage. Why didnt they just steal the lightning rods, its the only cool part anyways. Sometimes i think that the third world countrys have their justice system figured out. Oh you stole something douchebag? Well guess what were guna cut your hands off. Yep you sure wont do that again.

NEVER leave a G body unattended anywhere near Rockville road.

They're not on a container, they're being stripped for donks. Take it from a guy that's been down rockville a thousand times in a real nice G body. Who's lookin and how hard they're lookin tells the real story

**FoMoCoPower** · 08-10-2009, 06:06 PM

Clean G-Bodys sitting in a parking lot overnight and unattended in Indianapolis....wow,someone dropped the ball on gaurd-duty...WTF were they thinking???

Von Rigg Fink · 08-10-2009, 08:56 PM

could this be the 84?
http://detroit.craigslist.org/mcb/pts/1313283238.html

just got listed today..in Detroit

it jumped off the page at me so i thought i would put it out there

its just not something you see everyday up in this area, especially in that nice of condition

That guy with the coupe · 08-10-2009, 09:01 PM

"The hotel does have surveillance video however police are not releasing it yet. "

Maybe the cops will wait til the cars are stripped, then release it?
Assholes.

Von Rigg Fink · 08-10-2009, 09:04 PM

you know

**CJ Steak** · 08-10-2009, 09:06 PM

Damn... for a second there I thought they stole some pretty ones from the 60's... turned out to be some crap from the 80's...

j/k -that was cold.

Hope they find who did it and find the cars more importantly.

**Ratmotor** · 08-10-2009, 09:22 PM

The news article said a bunch of guys jumped out of a white truck. Wonder if it,s that white Dodge that seems to be at many car thefts.....

I just woke up and read this, makes me sick to think, What if it were my car and who do I have to kill today.

swi66 · 08-11-2009, 07:10 AM

Awhile ago, a hotel I was staying at for the All Chrysler Nationals in Carlisle had a car stolen from the parking lot. The police station was just down the street!
This hotel it turned out has no concern, though they charge premium rates during event weekends, they have NO outdoor security.

In case you do not know, surveilance cameras are NOT for the protection of the guests, they are for the protection of hotel property. Same with store surveilance, if your car is broken into at Wal Marts parking lot, they are not concerned in the least.

The car that was stolen from the Carlisle hotel was recovered, no thanks to the actions of the police investigators, it was due to the persistance of the owner and a network of enthusiasts, and the publicity generated through Mopar Collectors Guide magazine.

MitchellDeMoor · 08-11-2009, 07:26 AM

That is to bad. I am always worried about this. I constantly think about it happening to my cars. I used to live in a bad neighbrhood and get my stuff stolen all the time but never a Hurst/Olds that is to bad.
