Engine and Tip box stolen

Please help.

I had sold my old 6A12 to Bennoz, a few weeks ago, and just sold my tip box to Martin, only to find the workshop SUBZERO has done a runner.
I spoke to then 2 weeks ago to let them know Bennoz`s money had cleared and was going to ring to arrange a courrier to pick up the engine. Then last night Martins money cleared and I rang SUBZERO this morning, only to find that the call was diverted to another workshop. Strangely the guy on the phone had a simular accent to the guys from SUBZERO, but insisted they have nothing to do with them. He stated he had bought some machinery from them 2 weeks ago, and as a favour they diverted their number to him.
(YEAH RIGHT.) The new place is in another Suburb from the old SUBZERO, so I have no idea where the box and engine have gone. The new guy stated they were moving to Dubai (Bulls#$%T).
So I now have to refund Martin`s and Bennoz`s money, and I have no warrenty on my car.
If anyone finds a tip box for sale or a 6A12 from anyone without having an FTO please check it out and contact the police.
I spent the afternoon at the local cop shop, putting in a statement, but the officer stated that it was more a civil matter than a criminal one and doubted wheather anything would be done. How can I take these guys to civil court when they have done a runner.
So everyone please check out any tip box`s or 6A12s for me, and if anyone runs into a Mario Pavlovic, contact me and the police.
Many thanks
Jeff

Thanks Jeff.

It was a bit odd when I rang them a few weeks back & said I'd bought the motor, the guy said 'yeah no probs, come pick it up'
Then when my freight guy called them, they said ' dunno what your talking about'.... I was going to try & sort it this week, but you've already stumbled on the problem.

Ahh, well let me know if there's anything else I can do to help. As you can imagine I will now be keenly scouring the web for any other 6A12 motors - if I spot any without car, I'll let you know Jeff & you can check them out.

Cheers,
Ben

OUCH, thats just wrong!!

Anyone else looking at either of these should be checking the engine number (or lack thereof) before buying.....

Pricks. Surely it wont be too hard to track them down. Will keep an eye and ear out for you. I know a couple of people on the coast.

this is one of those times when a FTO Vigilante Group would've come in handy

I've heard that the Sub Zero boys actually are heading over to Dubai for a while, been contracted to build up some large hp cars for customers over there (they demoed one of the GTRs they built for someone over there at Jamboree last month).

Regardless, nonsense that you've been left in the lurch.
