1971 Chevelle SS coupe found after heist at Sydney home

[StephenSLR]

Three men are behind bars after a gang broke into a car lover's Sydney home and stole three vehicles, including a 1971 red Chevy which was located several hours later.

The 42-year-old car enthusiast was woken in the early hours of Tuesday by the gang, who forced their way into his West Pennant Hills garage and drove off in his red 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle SS coupe, a black Jaguar sedan and a Range Rover.

The trio was arrested a short time later after crashing the Range Rover into a nearby M2 motorway on-ramp.

The Chevy was found abandoned just after 8am in the neighbouring suburb of Castle Hill and is now being forensically examined by police.

Gang members are still on the run, with police asking the public to be on the lookout for the black model XF 2015 Jaguar with licence plate CXS 56J.

Could not have been very smart thieves to steal such a visual car.....

It's why it was done so early in the morning but the risk is to not run across coppers who wouldn't hesitate to follow it and flag it over.
