At the big shows like Chevell-abration, I'm usually going to bed around the same time some of the early-birds are getting up. :beer:

I do disconnect the "hot" wire to the computer at the fuse block (used to run the coil wire to the same place when I had an HEI) if I'm somewhere that I feel nervous about it... still might not stop them, but they're less likely to stick around and diagnose the problem.

The professional thief is tough to stop though. :(

I have considered removal of the coil wire (simple yet effective - replace it with a booted rubber hose), master switch for electrical.....

I have a remote battery with a hidden switch that allows me to completely disable the car.

A security system is something that I have been seriously thinking about. Any suggestions?

It's too bad an OnStar system couldn't be retrofitted to our beloved classic cars.
GPS tracking and a remote ignition control...

I have a Painless wiring kit in the Camino so I just pull the Master fuse on the firewall. It's a special 50 amp fuse I don't think the average thief would carry and it has a block to prevent hot wiring.

I cannot even imagine the gut wrenching feeling of finding our car gone. Our deepest sympathies go out to its owner.

Sure hope they get it back and lock the SOB away who did it !

Or lock him in a room with the owner and the owners friends. Then let's see who walks out.

I would hate to have mine stolen, but it is insured and I'm sure I would find something to make me feel better. Maybe I can talked the guy in selling the two seat chevelle or get my hands on that two seat nova.

Thats the worst thing could happen.Hopfully he had full insurance coverage.All my cars have had some sort of kill switch.I had to go to south carolina years ago for job oreantation and my daily driver was a 65 elcamino.I had a kill switch and when parked overnight at the hotel was removing the distributor rotor with a chain locking the hood shut.Now that I have a convertable I worry some bone head will see a bag of m&ms on my seat and slash my top to get to them so I leave the windows down with nothing of value inside.Would be nice if could double insure like the owner of that oil rig that exploded.
