Stolen Jeep

[blazerbrad]

the plate is not entered as stolen as of yesterday ! I checked prolly need to tell your buddy to get it entered

Let's clarify, the Jeep with the above plate is NOT the stolen Jeep, hence why it is not reported as a stolen vehicle. Rather it is suspected that the axles stripped from the stolen Jeep (in which the carcass was recovered) are now residing under the Jeep/license in question.

Copy from the post:
**************************************************
However the local police snooped around this shop some more and found the remnants of the stolen YJ in the back as seen above, and the full-widths had been removed and replaced with stock YJ axles. Also notice how they quickly spray painted the remainder of the sheet metal, presumably so it wasn't as obvious to people looking for light blue. Based off that there is a good chance the YJ they looked at the day before actually had the axles from the stolen Jeep. Good thing is they have the plate # of the YJ in question.


Keep an eye out for this YJ, as it likely has the missing axles.
Black YJ
white spokes with thornbirds
full-width 9in (with spool) and the dana 44.
believe it has a V-8 in it
OH plate EOC 9312.

Are you sure the suspect vehicle is black? Its coming up as as dark green on DMV records. Could have been repainted or viewed in low light conditions?

Can't answer this question, but 3 different guys saw it at 2 different times during the day????? The complete drivetrain is non-stock so it's quite feasible that it had been painted at some point in time.
