Today my girlfriends 89 Civic hatch was stolen today in front of the Micheals Arts and Crafts store in Coon Rapids MN 55433. The car is not pretty, nor fast, nor anything remarkable. But it is my girlfriends ride to college that she is starting in three weeks. She saved for an entire year working her buns off at McDonalds to pay for it, help a girl (and a mad boyfriend) find this thing! I know I have some friends in Minnesota on here who may have a slight chance of spotting it. There is honestly nothing fancy about the car MINUS the head unit which is a cheap outdated pioneer system with factory speakers. Thanks guys.. Reward for any information.

Silver Civic DX Hatch
VIN: 2HGED6454KH550028
Block #2665673 D15B2

Distinguishable markings include a black hood, black wheels, cracked windshield, rust on literally every panel, removed rear badges, relocated battery in the hatch, and a missing exhaust tip.

Either email me at halohaulic@hotmail.com or call me at 651-788-1658 OR CALL THE POLICE!!!

 

Sorry to hear man. Good luck.

 

Bump

 

Damn some1 was desperate for a ride

 

it'll be found, probably gone through, and missing the stereo and possibly intake. gotta love tweaks. sorry for your loss man!

 

holy rust

 

Honestly ran on three cylinders, best guess was a broken valve or a cracked ring. She probably would have driven it till it blew up and then junked it. The windshield was cracked, every panel had rust on it, the interior had rips, etc. They ditched an SE Integra that was hot for this! I just don't understand, I'm hoping we find it with minimal damage. I installed a fuel and ignition cut switch in my Accord today and I will more than likely be fixing whatever is wrong with my factory security system too.

 

Still nothing, I've honestly been on CL for about the last hour looking for anything. Parts, the stereo, speakers, bumpers, hood, etc.. Anything worth posting. ******* people, I hate the useless scum on this planet.

 

You are probably getting most of that car back.
There really isn't anything on it that I could imagine a thief wanting the entire car for.

 

Exactly. It's just a rust bucket, probably some junkie took it for a joy ride. Hope you get it back for her.

 

Still nothing :/

 

it's around. look in back alley's, sketchy apartment complex's, and deserted areas.

 

Did you contact the police yet? I doubt they would help since that's the last thing they ever do but, you can try.

 

My father happens to have police friends in almost every local area, so he's contacted all of them and apparently they've been looking.

We've been doing exactly that. lol

 

Just bought her a 94 Accord LX CD5 to replace the old blue bomber that was her Civic. Trust me guys, this one is going to be pretty crook proof. lol Still hoping to find the EF, although I doubt we ever will :/ The Accord is in general better shape, shifts better, runs better, and is faster. But still, damn bastards.

 

that sucks

 

Sorry to hear that. Someone really must have been desperate for a ride...At least you got her a new car

 

That is horrible man. I couldnt even imagine. hopefully the more people that are aware of it being stolen will find it? it is a pretty unique car. good luck man

 

Damn. Can't have nothin' nice. People are often surprised when I tell them how much Hondas are stolen, this one surprised me.

 

this sounds like the beginning of a great project.

you get the car back intact or not. and rebuild it. making it your family project car keep that bomber alive

put security in EVERYTHING someone probably saw it and figured no one would look for it, it was probably chopped up and sold for scrap metal, no one checks a car in pieces on a trailer, especially a rusty one, it's been happening more and more, the scrap yards are only required to check vin numbers on entire cars, nice loophole right?

 

find this thing yet?

 

call around to scrap yards also. i only say this b/c someone had theirs stolen and police traced it a scrap yard...after it was crushed.

 

Like I said,the thieves have wised up to this, they cut them into scrap, and bring them in on a trailer as scrap steel not a car, they hit older rusty cars because no one looks twice at one on a trailer,try an experiment,call a bunch of yards,tell themm you have an old rusted car you are going to cut up, but you lost your paperwork,most likly they will say bring it in

 

So this is probably the last time I will update this thread. Still no word on the Civic even after contacting scrap yards and hours upon hours of craigslist searching. Damn people.. The new Accord is now thoroughly equipped with security measures that will hopefully scare off any desperate ignorant ******* that bats an eye at it. I'm still hoping to get that call someday, but I doubt it. Still a great wake-up call, although a terrible one. Thanks for everyone keeping an eye out and keeping the community aware of thievery!
