After an online car-buying transaction gone wrong, a New Jersey woman ended up reunited with her used Chevrolet<\/a> Camaro, which was stolen 36 years ago.<\/p>\n

Keith Williams of Santa Maria, California, frequently buys used cars online, as he collects classic models. A beautifully-restored 1969 Camaro caught his eye, but he was concerned when he got the car. The buyer listed the vehicle as an SS, but Williams noted a number of inconsistencies between that version of the car and the one he had.<\/p>\n

Williams went to the police with his findings and they ran the vehicle identification number. That led them to New Jersey, where the Newark Police Department was able to find an old police report – on microfilm – that revealed the car had originally been stolen back in 1975.<\/p>\n

The police were able to track down the woman, who wishes to remain anonymous, and reunite her with the old car. Williams made out okay, as he had buyer's insurance, which sent him a full refund for the purchase he made online.<\/p>\n

Buying used cars online can be a bit dangerous if you don't know what you're doing. Instead, consider New Jersey State Auto<\/a> Auction, which offers a wide variety of vehicles at affordable prices. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
