You can’t always get a police officer to attend when your car is stolen, but they will come if you have an ownership card for what was deemed to be someone else’s vehicle. Toronto’s Sam Grosso is the latest to experience this. First it happened to Wayne and Mona Evoy in July, when the OPP showed up with a flatbed truck to seize what they thought was their 1934 Ford Couple replica.
Despite having legal paperwork, they were told it had previously been reported stolen. Now it’s Grosso’s turn. “I couldn’t believe it,” said the former owner of the Cadillac Lounge, who now lives in Prince Edward County.
“I thought it was some type of practical joke. On Aug. 24, a truck was here from the OPP and I was advised to co-operate or I could be charged with obstruction.
” He handed over the car. Yet for two years he had his beautiful 1960 Buick LeSabre on the road as part of his Vintage Car Wine Tours. You heard about how the Evoys of Napanee had OPP show up and confiscate a 1934 Ford replica they bought 3 years ago and had legal ownership for.
Cops say it was stolen. Now I learn same happened to Sam Grosso. Police came after 2 yrs and took his 1960 Buick.
