What a happy and unexpected ending!


Los Angeles customs officials recover attorney’s beloved Jaguar XKE 46 years after it was stolen in New York

 

I posted the Spanish language version of same story.

 

My '67 Pontiac LeMans was stolen in 1978, is there still hope?

 

I don't want to rain on anybody's parade but if the insurance company paid off when it was first stolen, doesn't the car theoretically belong to them?


furthermore, I am surprised customs was able to find the owner since he must have changed addresses many times since it was stolen. But at any rate I don't think the insurance company would contest present day ownership if even if they had paid out because that lawyer/owner sounds much too well practiced to go up against...
