Stolen car reunited with owner after 47 years
Hi neighbours,
A South Waikato man has been reunited with his stolen car 47 years after it was taken.
Atiamuri pensioner Clive Macann never gave up searching for his 1935 Pontiac Coupe after it was stolen in Palmerston North in 1972.
He'd first set eyes on the "dream" car as a 13-year-old and was determined to own it. By 16, the car, which was in pristine condition and only one of six in New Zealand, was finally his.
But four years later he found himself in tears after discovering it had been stolen from a shed where it was being temporarily stored while he sourced a new gearbox.
