A pair of classic Chevrolets, a ‘68 Camaro SS and a ’67 Chevelle SS, have reportedly been stolen in Washington. Now authorities are asking the public for help tracking them down, so we want to help spread the word.
Can this Camaro really outrun a state trooper?
The two classic cars were stolen from a property near Auburn, Washington recently. The King County Sheriff’s Office didn’t say exactly when the vehicles were taken when it released photos of the cars to the public on August 28.
As you can see, the 1968 Chevy Camaro SS is painted green with black accents. It also has a black interior.
The 1967 Chevelle SS 396 is black with red accents and has a red interior.
We’re assuming the two cars were stolen from the same property, but the sheriff’s office didn’t say. In fact, it’s not released any more information about the theft. We wish more and better photos of both vehicles were available.
Still, we’re hopeful someone will see and recognize the Chevrolets and the cars are returned to their rightful owner. However, we understand that someone might have taken and hidden them, swapping out VIN tags, repainting them, doing engine swaps, and anything else to cover their tracks.
This is why we tell readers to be vigilant with their own classic and collectable rides. Parking them in a secure building is a good first step. So is having surveillance cameras so you can capture if someone tries to take them.
Installing a kill switch or other device that will prevent thieves from starting your car is also smart. Alarms are mostly only useful if they send a notification to your phone.
However, GPS tracking devices in your vehicle can be instrumental in it being recovered if it’s stolen. We recommend using at least two, just in case the thieves find one.
If you know anything about this stolen Camaro and Chevelle, contact the King County Sheriff’s Office at 206-296-3311.
