What kind of car? It is possible to splice the cut end with another wire with a plug on it. If you need to do it quickly until you replace the antenna and wire, you can strip back the wires, exposing the outer braid and center conductor. Splice the center wire together and solder, then insulate with tape. Then, twist the braid together, and solder, then tape. Ghetto, but should work until you can replace everything..

Sorry about the thievery you experienced though...
