Go out looking around all the dodgy estates and garage blocks and lock ups , its probably under a tarp somewhere

this is really sad, why am i getting the sad feeling that its probably been stripped and coated in dulux for the oval by the rigger boot hiab brigade.
i really hope this isnt the case and its in hiding

Yes there is a bad element to this sport but its getting boring blaming them for everything old that goes missing |

this is really sad, why am i getting the sad feeling that its probably been stripped and coated in dulux for the oval by the rigger boot hiab brigade. i really hope this isnt the case and its in hiding You're getting this feeling because you're jumping on the banger bashing band wagon. Yes there is a bad element to this sport but its getting boring blaming them for everything old that goes missing There is only one of four things that could have happened to the car 1) Its been ringed. Thats highly unlikely as precious few Cortinas were sold in that colour and its not realistic that it would be stripped for a complete respray. 2) Joy riders. Possible but, surely, it would have turned up by now abandoned or burnt out 3)Stolen for parts. I'm no part of the Cortina "community", however, I'm pretty certain parts coming up for sale would soon get flagged up! 4)Stolen to be raced. This is the most likely scenario, isnt it? The car has disappeared off the face of the Earth and the first three possibilities are far less likely, arent they? Banger bashing is, I agree, becoming an epidemic but, come on, just how many cars have been PROVEN to be lifted to be pushed around the oval! There has been more than a few cases on here of cars being found either before the thieving scum have had time to dulux them or at the aftermath of a cars destruction. I quite agree that the vast majority of the Banger fraternity are honest, are Classic/Retro lovers themselves and are a bloody good source for getting spares from. The thing is that still leaves a significant minority who are none of the above, doesnt it. Sorry but you cannot change peoples perceptions just by arguing that its a minority who are wrong uns, weedle them out, clean up the sport and those of us who point the finger wont have a leg to stand on, will we!! |

yeah fair point i suppose, it's not really worth the hassle of exporting so where else could it be?? I did read the thread on here about the volvo found in the banger yard so we all know some of them are at it. This argument will go on and on till god knows when. Maybe it's down to the banger boys to get it across to the wronguns that it's not acceptable, maybe new scrutineering rules. Anyway lets hope it turns up.

I agree , it would be great if the banger lot could do something about the minority , not saying they are responsable for all the stuff that gets pinched . I think it keeps happening because no one actually stands up from that camp and says anything about it . Maybe someone who's on a banger forum could start a discussion??

Yes there is a bad element to this sport but its getting boring blaming them for everything old that goes missing I'm not banger bashing, i know genuine lads who are banger and oval racers who get their cars by legitimate means its the minority that curse word it up for everyone, what really is boring is the ones who think because cars are prepped to be unidentifiable they can go and steal someones pride and joy to strip and smash up, it really is a shame the legitimate folks in the banger community don't police within them selves to push these kind of folks out of it |
