2-3 megapixel cameras are pretty cheap.
A wire-break sensor, some 5 or so 500W floodlights, and the camera in a
convenient place triggered to go off several times.

Will you spell it out? Someone took a crow bar to the corner window
of my truck last night and took about every important tool I had. I
have to fix this problem. Is there a way to set off the cameras
automatically after the lights come on without flashes and multiple
shots ? I need to call the junk yard and I don't have a screw driver
little alone the other tools to get it off the one I may find. The
SWMBO wants a fence so the dog can get all around ASAP.
I'm afraid , if I had my way I'd put up a 9' block wall with broken
bottles in holes so they are replaceable. 0

There's probably a game camera that would work. Good selection at
Cabelas. http://tinyurl.com/2eqqu
