I just had my 2007 Brand New car stolen from me a gun point. They got nothing but my car but it can be replace. My 66 Continental keys were on the ring. The next day I ordered my ignition, doors and lock set plus 3 sets of blank keys for my Continental. What's some other security measures I can take more advanced than a kill-switch that I can install on the car and not effect the originality of the car? Your advice would be appreciated.

If you have the money i would put a lo-jack system on it, so the police can track the car and catch the thief. Also you might want to consider carrying a personal defense weapon (not necessarily a handgun) but perhaps peper spray or a stun gun. Ive been hit with a 950,000 volt stun gun by a friend of mine (we wanted to see if it worked) and I'm a big guy (about 6"3 200pounds) and it put me to my knees in about 3 seconds max. Also do not confuse a stun gun with a tazer, a stun gun you touch to the assailant, a tazer you shoot probes into the assailant.

Lo-Jack has a good system and a high recovery rate on stolen cars. I liked the idea of the dummy coil wire from the coil to the distributor. I can remember some years back that guys would pull the wire up from the coil so that it looked like it was connected, but it was far enough away that the car wouldn't start. Good luck with the 66.

Hidden kill switch is best other than removing the distributor rotor or installing a battery disconnect and hood lock. A good alarm system with a paging alarm and kill option would be good too.
