Stolen Austin Healey sports car spotted on eBay after 42 years

Stolen Austin Healey sports car spotted on eBay after 42 years

In 1970, a British 1967 Austin Healey 3000 sports car owned by a man named Bob Russell was stolen from his apartment in Philadelphia. Russell thought that he'd never find his beloved car again. Then 42 years later, after years of surfing the Internet, the now-retired sales manager surprisingly found his lost car in an online auction on eBay. Russell immediately called the dealer and said, "I hate to sound indelicate, but you're selling a stolen car.".
Thankfully, he still kept the original key and car title with him, as well as signed affidavits from friends and the original owner.
