As per title, this was posted on our local forum so I thought I'd put it on here, the workshop in question is called Beetlewerks, based in the Brighton/Hove area;
Can you be on the look out up there or let me know if you hear of anyone selling parts, tools etc. We had the garage broken in to over the weekend, someone(s) came in and jacked up a customers vehicle and took their empis off, broke in to the work shop and had only T2 panels away and doors so we think its for a resto possibly. They had 2 brand new front doors, these were just freshly painted on Friday, a sliding door, tailgate and some other panels from another T2 we have in. They also stripped Darrens toolbox of all his snap on tools we reckon about £6,000 at the moment just in his tools but we keep finding other ones gone aswell as he goes to look for them! They have also taken our sanding machines (D.A's) even took the discs to go with them, the grinders, extension bars, 2 air guns, spray guns, sanding blocks, the list goes on as we keep writing the insurance list! It does seem they were just looking for specific items coz there was more expensive equipment around and items that they havent touched. Please could you ask at the clubs too just to make them aware aswell, we are going to the Slough swap meet this Sunday as traders anyway so perfect opportunity to look there aswell!
Anyone hear or know of the above please contact Beetlewerks or PM me & I can forward the details on.
Thanks in advance.
