the way I keep mine safe is....... OH wait its not safe any where. All it takes is for you to slip up just a cunt hair and BAM its fucking gone
example. I just ran in to get a burger and when I came out it was gone!
OR I posted a for sale ad and now its gone!

no matter what you do I.E 2 way pager alarm,kill switch,block it in with another car,a club on the wheel,master battery kill a TOW TRUCK can get it and if you are lucky the cops will find it on the side of the road,warehouse,back yard in a month or it could be years

I worked for the local PD CHP and the sherrifs office towing cars and also did private property tows every car has to be called in to the local police for the last one to let them know the status of the car. parked in a red zone,dandy cap illegaly parked or just plain old abandoned by tennant that moved out 10% of those are stolen recoverys I did that from 2000-2005 and I only found 2 foxbodys that were stolen and returend in decent condition to be restored like poped ignition broken quarter glass and bald rear tires

I got caught slipping with my wife's foxbody it Got stolen back in August and got it back like 4days later.
I'd say to atleast keep the amatuer car thief's away you should have a minimum of a steering wheel club, an alarm and tint your windows if you have a flashy interior such as aftermarket gauges, system, etc.

bury it in cement, I bet yua, it's gna stay there for good. hehe, just kidding.

but seriously, it worked for me when i bought a 4 Eye fox, a had a few and none of them got broken into, stolen nor vandalized. A far different story from the 90 GT I had. That one either got broken into and eventually it got stolen- found it 4 days later and I parted it out

If you post pictures of your guns and pitbulls on CaFords, crooks will not steal from you. They will be entirely to intimidated.

Known Fact.

go down to the local military auction and pick up a tank, and put it on your lawn. they may get past a dog or a little gun but cant out run a cannon you can blow up obstuctions with those

id make the lock unreachable
good luck trying to get under a lowred mustang with bolt cutters, unless they brougt a jack, thats pretty risky for a thief to go throug all that trouble for a foxbody

there are ways to make the lock unreachable but it take a little creativity

Best way not to get a fox stolen is not owning one...
