Quirky World ... Car returned 46 years after being stolen
Running a routine check at the Port of Long Beach, California Highway Patrol identified the 1967 Jaguar XKE as stolen. The problem: It was already on a cargo ship, headed for Europe. More than two months later, the car is back in southern California.
After a lifetime of owning luxury cars, 82-year-old Schneider said he always remembered the Jag as the “prettiest” he had bought. Decades later, it is far from pristine. His plan is to refurbish it for Sunday drives.
