Found this ad on Mopar Market from someone reporting their Cuda stolen from their garage in Sydney last week.  Worth keeping an eye out.

Man, that sucks. Looks like a lovely example too. :walkaway:
Hopefully the culprit(s) are found and dealt to with harsh sentences.

Just keep an eye on your local classified sites like eBay etc. :sadwavey:

absolutely. Will be very hard to hide a car like that. I'd get the word out everwhere I could including dealers, collectors, and body shops. Not a chance this could be the first overseas episode of Overhaulin'??

Hi Mark,
Have you been in contact with the owner.  If you could findout the Vin number incase i see something up here in Queensland.  I could check the cowl and rad support if the Vin is lifted from the dash if i come across any new cars that arrive.

I would have to agree with that!!!!   I hope they find it and it is still in good shape!!!!

This is a very bad thing and I can only imagine how the owner must feel about his Cuda being stolen. Sure hope they find the Cuda before it is cut up or changed.

Surely they monitor containers heading to the states or elsewhere for stolen vehicles. There can't be too many of those cars over there and would be hard to cover up or otherwise reproduce owner documentation. I hate to think of it but could likely be disassembled and sold for parts. I think if it were me I might be posting ads for model specific parts in my local area and see what comes my way.

I too would be devastated.  :stomp:

I emailed the owner and told him that I had advertised his stolen Cuda here, and passed on your suggestions but didn't hear back from him.  :dunno:

You would have to be mad to take such a car here.  Not enough of them for it to disappear unless it gets hidden for a long time.  Too many people now know what these are for it to remain secret.   It will resurface for sure. :villagers:
