Sounds like a nice build. A shame he didn't put a LoJak in it as well.
Hopefully, it will turn up somewhere.

Thanks to everyone.

Actually he had already bought a gps tracking device and wanted to install it on monday as he had the day off.

He started chasing an ignition problem and found the insulation of a couple spark plug wires melted, so he got new wires from Summit, installed them, did some more work on the distributor and decided to install the tracking device the following weekend.

Next morning the car was gone, can you believe this?

Has he had it at a shop lately? One that would want his address and have had time to make a copy of his key?

I had a friend that took his new truck to a tint shop and left it there for the day. And another friend that left his new car at a stereo shop for the day.
In both separate cases, their cars disappeared a few days later.

Unfortunately, that happens. Someone at the shop makes a copy of the key and gets the address from the registration or service order paperwork.

Just a thought....

Most likely an "inside" job. Check his neighbors or car shops your brother goes to.
I have a friend who owns/manages valet parking in Los Angeles and he has fired employees who make "copies" of car keys. I am guessing your bros car is the old school car Key in the
Ignition
