Default HPF robbed upto $10000 reward for information

Last night (Thursday) after 7pm the HPF workshop was robbed. A large amount of tools and tuning equipment was taken. Ian and Rob who run HPF have offered a substantial reward for information that will lead to the return of the equipment. They have offered upto $10000 for the return of all the gear or part thereof for part of it.
If you have any information ring either HPF on 97931616 or if you'd rather you can ring/PM me (0417892479).

Geea.

High Performance Factory. Baywater in Vic I believe.

There's always some piece of scum ready to steal stuff instead of working for it. They don't even have the excuse of being a filthy druggy.

Sorry my bad. HPF is The HorsePower Factory in Dandenong.
They've tuned half the fast XR6T's in Melbourne and are one of the leading CAPA edit dealers.

No files were taken or harmed. The theives were after the tools. Everything is insured and it's business as usual. The thing is alot of the blokes that work there have built these tool kits up since they were apprentices and besides being their tools of trade some also have sentimental value.

Maybe let Judy have her way with them!!!

Sounds like a reasonable burg and theft on HPF. Did they have monitered alarm? Any cameras and what was point of entry? I know with my father in laws factory he has bollards behind roller doors and showroom doors are screwed shut of an evening.
