Detectives are appealing for public assistance after a classic 1970s Ford Fairlane was stolen from a home in Whittlesea between April 26 and May 6.
Detectives believe unknown offenders have gained access to a carport at the rear of the Whittlesea home.
The car, estimated to be worth around $25,000, is distinctive in style with its burgundy-coloured front left quarter panel, whitewall tyres and NSW registration plates.
The classic 1970s model was being restored by the victim.
