A
Missouri man said the old flame was rekindled when he travelled to Utah
to take possession of the Chevy Camaro stolen from him 16 years ago.
Edward Neeley of Jefferson City signed the paperwork in Salt Lake City
needed to secure the release of his red 1969 muscle car he had named
Chelsey Pearl. Ed and Chelsey were separated in 1995 when a thief stole
the classic vehicle. Neeley stumbled upon the missing car being offered
for sale by a Syracuse man. The man said he had bought the car four
years earlier on eBay. Neeley recognized the picture and obtained a
police report from Syracuse that revealed the VIN number had been
changed to a number that belonged to a Chevy Chevelle. Investigators
said the switch was missed by officials when the Camaro was registered
in Utah and they have no idea how many hands Chelsey went through before
winding up with Neeley once again.
