    Cars in the 60's were so easy for thieves to steal... my parents had a 1968 Dodge Coronet. It didn't even have a locking steering wheel. Nowadays we have chips in keys that send a signal to the computer in order to start the car. Theft is possible, but much more difficult.
    What's unrealistic about this video is nowadays, cops wouldn't even bother going to the trouble of pulling fingerprints or getting the FBI involved unless they suspected the stolen car of involvement in a much more serious crime.

The style of 'Ventiports' visible at 15:03 through 15:07 and again from 15:58 - 16:18, the fact that there are four of them, along with the chrome trim above the tail light, placement of 'Dynaflow' script on rear fender and style of 'Sweepspear' (features visible from 18:43 - 18:50) all seem to indicate a 1952 Roadmaster Model 76C .

    The critical procedure that this film left out is to make sure there's a 2 or 3 week delay between identifying the rightful owner and telling the owner that his vehicle is parked in an tow yard so that the impound charges are almost equal to the value of the car. Towing companies don't make campaign contributions to mayors and sheriffs for nothing.

    I love it!! Taking soil samples to determine where the chop shop may be! POSSIBLY (and I do mean possibly!) could be used if you had a shop in question, but a real long shot if you didn't! I'm thinking, exactly how much would a thorough investigation would that cost? Also, how stupid was that dude to run away after the blown tire? It took about 6 months and 25,000 man hours by professionals to determine it was stolen. If he would have stayed with the car, he would have been given a ticket and sent on his way!

    The 1960's was a time of major change in car theft resistance. In the earlier 1960's, GM cars did not even need a key to start the engine - locking the ignition was an option for the driver. By the end of the 1960's, the steering wheel and transmission had to be locked in order to remove the key, with a buzzer reminding you if you left your keys in the ignition when you opened the door. Sure there were ways to steal the car, but it was obvious when the steering column was damaged or the lock tumbler was removed.

    Wow, brilliant idea, extra ignition switch. You could just run a jumper wire from the positive battery terminal to the ignition coil, jump the solenoid on the starter and you're good. Had to do that to my '73 IH pickup when I broke the key. On those old chevies with a power glide transmission, you could actually push start it. The pumps were on the rear, I believe it was around 20 mph speed and it would start. It did on my '66 chevelles with that trans. Oh, he'd have to push it far away, I always had open headers on my old chevelle. Who'd of thought it was a poor man alarm.

      The same kind of sorcery, laziness and failure to pay attention to detail
      is evident in 95% of the writing ability, fluency in language and literacy

      The majority of writers are failures in the English language, poorly educated,
