i came out one morning still half asleep.....
jumped in my mazda to go to work.....as i went to pull out from the kerb....
something just didnt look right.......
i check over my shoulder......no cars.....
i look for oncoming traffic.....no cars......
try to pull out again.....and im thinking....somethings amiss.....
it took me a few attempts to finally wake up enough to realise someone
had stolen my door mirror overnight......
i looked around to make sure no one was watching me.....then when satisfied no one had seen me.....
i looked over my shoulder again and finally drove off......
had a silly dumbfounded smirk of stupidity and anger all the way to work that morning......
I have had batteries stolen a couple of times over the last fifty years. A few times fuel has been siphoned until locking caps became standard fitment, and even had a locking cap jemmied off once to get at the fuel. A VC Valiant ute I once owned was hot wired and driven a couple of hundred yards around the corner and the push button radio stolen. Bet they got a surprise to find the radio didn't work. A Plymouth car with front bench seat and lift out seat cushion was broken into and the underseat battery and the seat cushion stolen.
A few years back at an LROC meeting about half a dozen Landies had their spare wheel stolen.
