The 1958 Edsel Ranger at 15:57 is cool. Also, I've identified the Buick. 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 .

It's hard to imagine even back then that this amount of investigation would be undertaken for a typical stolen car. On the other hand to catch the guy to who ran away from the scene might be more motivation.
Must have been nice to live in a society where there was so little crime that the cops could actually devote that much manpower to solving what would be considered a minor crime nowadays.
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.
Where did you see evidence of anyone preserving fruits? I've watched it 3 times, and I've seen nothing to indicate the criminals were in anyway involved in canning foods. Or maybe it's possible, that you were referring to the quality of paint coverage that's seen inside this vehicles, door "jambs"?

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.

Sure there were ways to steal the car, but it was obvious when the steering column was damaged or the lock tumbler was removed.

@@Artyomthewalrus of course its a bad idea but many do it. After the re-vined unit is sold at a profit it is recovered by the thieves it is chopped into parts by the auto recycler at a 3rd party garage, this completes the cycle.

It’s weird because I was sort of creating my own scene from this with my old matchbox cars and when the cop car pulls out it’s the same car as my matchbox one.
This was helping video 4 criminals on how not to get busted theses cops make thing easy by showing how u could get busted if u leave traces behind thank boys
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!

They're only a political weapon if a politician has something to hide.
@@billschlafly4107 you mean the blind guy? You really think a blind guy saw stuff on a laptop? The only crook is Trump
steal car
switch vins
sell car
steal it back
repeat
Rinse and repeat
Bad idea, if the cars you sell keep on getting stolen, you will get looked in to. Terrible business plan.
Yuuup, Ive heard stories of car thieves doing this. Easy money. You already have a duplicate key and know their name and address.
This was a plot theme in The Grand Theft Auto video game franchise.
@@Artyomthewalrus of course its a bad idea but many do it. After the re-vined unit is sold at a profit it is recovered by the thieves it is chopped into parts by the auto recycler at a 3rd party garage, this completes the cycle. These guys are not a dealership they are part of a network, each unit is sold privately and never by the same individual. It is happening everyday everywhere.
That nice ‘67 was no repaint
Was used on the TV show Bewitched
Jesus even crooks worked hard in the 60's, all that work to pass of the stolen car
this movie is from the 70s but k
Why would the FBI be so involved with a stolen car?
Those were innocent times, my friend.
The FBI has many branches.
Not just 1 car Many.
may have crossed state line ? they wernt too clear on that one
Crossed state lines maybe
3:04 A place like that would raise red flags today
Hey, I like blue better anyway.
Maindrian Pace I was wondering what if the owner did too! lol
Come on, red is the only acceptable colour for a fancy auto!
Thank you for showing us how to do all of that, FBI!
The thief must have watched the very first UA-cam clip on stealing cars because he did that real smooth.😂😅
It’s weird because I was sort of creating my own scene from this with my old matchbox cars and when the cop car pulls out it’s the same car as my matchbox one.
The same, but bigger right?
This was helping video 4 criminals on how not to get busted theses cops make thing easy by showing how u could get busted if u leave traces behind thank boys
My grandfather used to do this with his uncle in his youth. What a time to be alive lol
The old Oil Can Vin Tag Trick aye.
Looks Legit
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!
Calling in the fbi for a stolen car...
XD
Taking a stolen car across state line is a federal offense. I watched the TV show with Efrem Zimbalist Jr.. The FBI investigates this type of crime.
@@frankdenardo8261 "Investigates"...you mean, take your name and number, possibly give you a useless case number, and then never talk to you again?
Maybe they were trying to find evidence as a part of a bigger investigation of the gang that's been stealing them
Stolen car? Many cars involved In an million dollar operation! yeah time for the feds, too big of operation for Andy and Barney!!
it's called "VIN Cloning" today...
vin cloning is bullshit & you'll get caught so fast with it
vin switching is an art form
These are great training videos for thieves
Was this an FBI In-house instructional film? I hope that it wasn't shown to the general public... ...it's a 'how to' steal an auto blue-print!!
I guess if the car you are real by is an antique! The steering wheel lock and shift lock will screw a thief without a wrecker!
Today it is easier; a laptop, software and in like Flynn. Easier now than back in 1967.
American Family Insurance sent Copart to pick up my stolen Toy truck and now DMV SAYS I don't own it or my motorhome. I bought with cash.
That other car on the street they stole the red Impala from was a '65-'69 Corvair and even had bumper guards!
...aka 'bumperettes' ;~}
Looks to be a '65, judging from the tail lights.
You may now watch the original Gone in 60 Seconds filmed around Long Beach, and understand what they’re doing lol.
Someone needs to tell that kid stealing the Impala that there's a camera in the passenger's seat!
😂👍✨🏆
16:50 shouldn't there be red under the blue?
That section was from the salvage car
Yep yep yeah it's going to spend a thousand man-hours on a 1966 Impala
1967
How many agents and man hours were spent on the Nascar noose that wasn't?
6:38 Fanfare music- a glorious rebirth due to felony theft. "Fanfare for a felony". Of course if he drove like an old lady he could have delivered the car
Whàt about stealing a car and using it to go somewhere and then returning it with some weird fix like one of Earl Scheib's stranger colors. I was trying to operate a taxi in Howard Co. Md. home of some of the worst police. To hide the hack I had it painted competition orange. It worked.
That dirt from under the fender was sure an important clue.
Man if my car ever gets stolen I want these guys looking out for it, but I'm fairly certain the cops would tell me to get bent and it's not their problem
This might be a stupid question but what city was this filmed in.
No way the FBI could do this type of work today.
So THAT'S how John Winchester got his Impala...
Who?
NESherv John wick
I saw that car on Bewitched
Drive it like you stole it!!!!!!!
At 15:57, does anyone know what kind of a car the blue on the right is?
this is more like an instructional video for beginning hijackers
in the 60s. its very different now...
Love these old archive videos. When people gave a damn about their work
A car from when you could open the hood from outside. Just like the car I first drove 1979-80 -- my Dad's 1968 Chevrolet Belair with hydraulic brakes and no power steering.
I've never seen a battery so thoroughly destroyed by the elements.
I've never seen so much body roll in my entire life
@Lend me a ciggie would ya mate? yes, they use to focus only in comfort and not in sportiness. in the 70' usa, the softer the better
Times have changed for sure! But who are they shitten...? They never went through that much trouble for someone elses car....😂
Right. A few years ago my truck was stolen, there was fingerprints and blood from the thief cutting himself breaking in and trashing the steering column, and a jerry can in the bed from them running it out of fuel. After several calls to the police department while waiting two hours for them at the impound yard, all they asked was when was the last time I knew the whereabouts of the truck so they could close the case report.
@@abpsd73 Exactly! My uncles house got broken into years ago! We went to home depot...before they had one around were we lived. We got back & my uncle was like, why are all my lights on but my wife's supposed to be working & her cars not in the drive way? We went in they threw a rock through the back window. Stole 3 hand guns & his wicked expensive rare knife collection! They didn't give a shit. In fact i got the best print. The female detective was about to buckle her little case & i said try right here. She did & pulled the only usable print. We found out who it was but not by the cops. By who we knew on the streets...??? But obviously had no proof. They're only in it for a check! Only a very few are not corrupt & truly care!!!
16:05 thats a beautiful edsel in the background by the tractor
Of the three, a TR-4, an Edsel and an ancient drum roller, the Edsel is the best-looking.
That GTO in the Highway Shot 👀
Just look at that ugly Ford cop car , compared to the 67 Chevy beautiful "coke bottle" styling. Everybody loves 67 Chevrolet's now, because of Supernatural, but I have always owned them, and loved them, since I was a kid.
Right on! I owned a forest green 67´ Chevy Impala. a 4 door even! damn I miss my baby! had lots of great memories in that car!
I've loved them since 1980. A guy I worked for had a `67 black on black SS 427 4 speed.
This documentary is interesting to watch than most of today's films tbh.
Modern technology now the factory charges the owner 175.00 bucks for a key !
It's a wireless key fob, and the dealer can shove it. You can amazon the fob for 10 bucks and youtube the programming.
They sure were easy to steal back then
Now the police don't care even if it's a murder case...
Of course they will make an accident happen to silence everyone when a guy killed a pedophile who raped his daughter. Pretty good stuff.
They're overlooking that the frame is stamped with the VIN, usually under the trunk area, thieves usually don't or aren't capable of changing that one
Get that Sure Feeling from Chevrolet, the '67 Chevrolet.
17:09 little black car is a Ford 100E Prefect/Anglia. Rare car in the US then.
15:58 love that edsel
100% Agree with you
H.B. Haliki obviously used this film for inspiration for his “gone in 60 seconds” movie.. some of it seems word for word. Back in the old days it was definitely easier to pull off.
Nice video on HOW to steal an older car.... thanks!
Investigator after touching a piece of evidence with his bare hands: “All evidence must be carefully preserved”
gone in 60 seconds
Just thinking of that
Very good!! Thanks for posting.
This was back when the FBI had some integrity left and they actually investigated crimes.
You know nothing about the FBI. You have Fox News rabies.
You mean like the time they had Fred Hampton killed? Or the disinformation campaigns,and attempts to discredit Civil Rights Activists,or squashing Native American,and Puerto Rican independence movements?
I effing hate car theives. My brother had his 65 Ford Galaxie 500 stolen. Mother had her 86' Pontiac Firebird stolen.
Try to steal Anything from 2000 on. Hard....Back in the 60s 70s. All I would need is a Screwdriver.
Easier now. Keyless starting only needs software and a laptop.
Where in NY was this filmed? Poughkeepsie?
No gloves...
No glove, no love LOL!
No need for a ignition replacement nor a hot wiring. Just walk through a crowded mall parking lot. 9 times out of 10 you'll find a car with keys in the ignition or in the console with the doors left unlocked. You might be surprised, people do it quite often.
Don't ask me how I know this.
How do you know this?
Older documentaries were better.
The camera at 12:10. Times have changed, for the better of course especially the technology, we've came a long way.
'stolen car' experts lol....jobs that no longer exist....
Job interview: Tell me about your last job.....
- it's hard to explain....
Was this filmed in Astoria NY?
