Mother 'distraught' after special engine belonging to her army veteran son taken from driveway
A woman from Shrewsbury is distraught after a rare motor engine she kept for her son was taken from her driveway.
Mother-of-four Tyne Smith had been keeping a Ford Capri engine belonging to her eldest son while he was in the army.
Tyne's son had bought the engine off a good friend before he left, and it stayed wrapped up and tucked safely away until he returned from the army.
Now that he had his own home and family, Tyne said, he wanted to pick up the engine and turn it into a unique table. His mother had taken a picture of the engine just hours before it was taken to tell him it was "ready after all these years".
