Nice try, but it's not too hard to drive a car without a clutch if you keep moving and change gear at the right speeds for the gears to mesh smoothly. That also won't keep anyone from loading your pride and joy onto a rollback or other tow truck.
I once drove a Fleetline panelvan clutchless from Midrand to central Joburg in rush hour traffic after my clutch cable snapped, and didn't stall once.

Ive seen something similar before, all they did was to cut the pedal itself with a bolt cutter.

Ive put a airbag in my seat, deactivated with an encoded proximity sensor. I have a small device in my pocket wiyh the unique signature. Anyone who sits behind the wheel with out it gets shot into my roof with probably paralysing consiquenses.......i am worried about the criminal shape impression punched into the roof though. Its going to be difficult to buff out

That problem can easily be eliminated by fitting a hatch like this, that is operated by a very complex hydraulic system to open in conjunction with the airbag
