Man Reunited With Stolen ’68 Camaro After 33 Years !!
After all the stolen Camaro stories, we thought we’d written our last. But now there’s a story of another owner who was reunited with his stolen Camaro after decades of grief.
What the hell is going on with early Chevrolet Camaros? Every bozo and his mother is stealing them. First there was Papa John, who we helped reunite with his 1971 1/2 Camaro in 2009. He missed his car after having to sell it 26 years prior. Then earlier this year, someone in Detroit stole it. But luckily after a few days, someone found it, and the pizza chef got his prized mullet-mobile back.
Then there was the lady from New Jersey, whose 1969 Camaro was stolen, found in 2011 and returned to her after 36 years.
We’re not kidding, the Camaro is the most stolen sports car in America!
Now, to add to the pile of early stolen Camaros, there’s Ron Reolfi from North Canton, Ohio. According to Cleveland 19 News, back when Reolfi was in college at the University of Akron in the early 80s, he bought a 1968 Camaro for 600 smackers. He and his dad spent a year fixing her up. They painted it, fixed up the interior, slapped on a new fender, and upgraded the engine.
Then, just after they had finished fixing up their 327 V8-powered muscle car, someone swiped it from the grocery store parking lot where Reolfi worked. Describing just how heartbroken he was when he saw his car missing from the parking lot, Reolfi told Cleveland 19 News: “I can remember looking at the light I parked in under, and it not being there, and being crushed… When it was first stolen, I drove around for weeks, even months trying to find it.”

The 2018 Challenger SRT Demon, which will be a wider more powerful version of the Challenger, shows how serious #factory drag racing cars are becoming. The SRT Demon will be the first ever production car equipped with a transmission brake. The trans brake allows drag racers to use the device to lock up their transmission by engaging drive and reverse at the same time. This allows the drag racer at the starting line to rev up the engine to the ideal launch #RPM by #dragracing #supercharger

Growing up in the Pomona Valley during the early to mid-’70s meant being around the baddest muscle cars and hot rods in SoCal. On just about every block it was common to see an open garage #door on a warm summer night with a few young gearheads listening to Led Zeppelin while wrenching away on a hot rod of some sort. And if you lived near a guy with a Funny Car or Top Fuel dragster you were really lucky. Those guys were #SouthernCalifornia #PomonaValley #musclecars #TopFuel #LedZeppelin
