Just as I have been putting the final touches on next week's article entitled, " Just as I have been putting the final touches on next week's article entitled, " Increase in Classic Car and Muscle Car Thefts Have Owners Concerned ", I get the distressing news that another theft has occurred, this time rather close to home right here in Texas.





A Fort Worth man contacted authorities about his 1937 Buick Century 4-door Sedan which was stolen right out of his gated townhouse community parking garage sometime between 5pm Sunday, August 26 and 3pm Wednesday, August 29, 2012. Authorities need your help with any information available!﻿ This isn't your ordinary classic car, and should be memorable if you've seen it.

STOLEN: 1937 Buick Century Sedan

from Fort Worth, Texas



Have you spotted this stolen 1937 Buick?

We'd like to help Jamie locate the stolen classic car he uses for weddings and photo shoots. He originally purchased the car out of Hemmings Motor News. The car appears to have been singled out for the theft, as there were two other classic cars (a '34 Chevrolet Master and a '41 Packard) parked next to the stolen Buick. This is a beautiful, clean classic car that has had a professional frame-off restoration, along with many upgrades.
