JUST GOT THIS IN TODAY. PLEASE BE ON THE LOOK OUT FOR THIS ONE OF A KIND ROADSTER The car, truck and trailer were stolen at the Bass Pro Shop in San Antonio as he was on his way home. I have heard nothing further except that the police were reviewing the Security Camera Tapes for evidence Please keep this notice on top for a day or so--Thanks
WTF!!!! I hope these bastard get caught and strung up. This just makes me remember to be all that more careful when I park my POS
was wondering the same thing, seems like anytime I log into the site I see another car stolen. I guess we all need to be more careful with our cars, looks like they are being targeted
Was the trailer left at Bass Pro shop as this car appeared to drive into Boerne? If so, I wonder if the culprits were lying in wait. (For those not in the know, the Bass Pro Shop in this case is on the NW side of San Antonio on I-10, just down the road a few miles from Boerne and the Key to the Hills Rod Run.
That's a very distinctive car. The frame, windshield & engine alone set it apart from most of the rest. Hopefully someone will find it soon. If not, be on the lookout for a $2500 windshield being offered cheap. JH
Remember it well ... took over 200 pics, but didn't get this one. Anyone have a description of the trailer (open, closed, color, markings, etc.)?
All the information I received is in the top post. The complete tow rig--Trailer-car and truck was taken according to my information.This Roadster has not been driven much and is spotless and loads of details can be seen if you double click the pictures.
just read an article that said that classic cars, rods, etc., are being stolen at an increasing rate across the country. we need to keep them in sight, lojack them and lock and load.
It is kinda hard to look for a one of a kind car that is inside an enclosed trailer. We need facts on the truck and trailer!!
okay, this is making me real sick. While I did not make the show this year, I talked to the guy at length last year, and if I remember right, he had finished this car that his son had started before deploying to Afghanistan or Iraq. His son never made it home, and he finished it in his honor. I sure hope this isn't the same guy, but it sure looks like it. On the upside, if there is one, there is a epidemic of stolen, late model, large 4fwd trucks in south and south central Texas. The majority of them are being taken to Mexico to support the Cartels along the border (reality, not rascism, so don't even start that shit). With any luck, the car and trailer will be found abandoned, and soon. Fuckin' Thieves SUCK!
lets hope this is the case, and the roadster will be found without as so much as a scratch...if they know whats good for them man that car is awesome, lets band together and bring them all home
This Sucks!! When ever I am in tow and I stop sleep eat etc, I ALWAYS pull my main fuel pump fuse under the hood. I figure that if ever someone trys to steal it and it does not start quick they are not going to take time to figure it out.
holy crap again . I don't dial 911.....i dial 357 the thing about finding this stuff. The ass-o had step -b already planned out . good luck guys.
I'm afraid "THEY" have figured out some $$'s can be had with old cars and we've been targeted,guys !.....Too much of this has been happening lately and the next thing to attack us will be unaffordable insurance if we can't stop this plague.... DAMN!!!!
Exactly..and theres no incentive for the insurance Co.'s to help..or the Cops. theres no pay out for searching, and no payout for catching..so they dont really want to extend the man power..another reason why we have to step up and eliminate this problem
One more time to the OP.......more details. Time is of the essence. I'm sure if it was your car, you would agree with that.
Currently we are trying to get a description of the hauler and truck as information is un available right now. Possibly some one will know this owner will see this post and help out. The economy is a large factor in all the stealing going on and then there are the every day thief's that are out there looking for easy marks. Houston and surrounding areas are getting hard hit in race cars and classics and most are in the high dollar range. In my area there stealing in mass quanitys of farm tractors and 4 wheelers so all we can do is be aware and take measures to protect our property.
