You figure if your car gets stolen, the thieves are going to head straight to a chop shop and get a few hundred bucks for it as quickly as possible. You don't expect this.

A guy named Josh Shelburne from Albuquerque, New Mexico left his Jeep Wrangler running in his driveway last week while he ran inside to grab some coffee. In less than 90 seconds, some thieves took off with it.

48 hours later, the cops found the Jeep. It was not stripped for parts. Nope. It had a much stranger fate!

The thieves pimped Josh's ride! They painted it a sparkly purple color and put a crazy front bumper on it.

Josh says, "It's pretty hilarious.  It's just this big purple monster now."  He's still waiting to get it back from the cops.
