STOLEN: Iconic Ardun T-bucket.
Breaking news: The iconic Martin Voss owned Ardun powered T-bucket has been stolen. The Ardun motor is one of just half a dozen in NZ and is well do***ented. Both the car and engine can be easily spotted and/or identified so keep your eyes peeled and lets get it back to its rightful owner. All or any information please contact Dave Wells at the Turangi Police Station on 021 191 3701.

 

Dear S***bag. That's like stealing the Mona Lisa. You might think you made a nice score but who are you going to show it to? You stole a car on an island! You're a dumb*** and a s***bag! Geezus!!

 

Probably allready in a container

That ****s. I remember that car from back in the day. NZ is a small country with a strong hot rod base, it would be nearly impossible to part that car out and sell it.
Spread the word.

Start searching the shippers.Stake the thief out in the desert.

 

Already in parts destined for some foreign country as it would be too hard to not get noticed in a small country like NZ.

 

Any better details on this? Lots of times, when old cars go missing, they get stolen inside an enclosed trailer or something and the people who steal them don't even know what they're taking.

 

BTT for the kiwis.

 

thought this only happened in the states.......hope it's found soon

 

Yeah, Grease told me a few stories about trying to get that one years ago. I really hope the g****vine comes through here, but it may be a goner....I hope the thieves get what is coming to them...

 

Hope it gets found. Bob

 

do the ****heads think they can suddenly show up somewhere with some Arden heads and not have questions asked?

 

Yup, this is pretty much what I was thinking too. I HATE ****ing thieves

 

Yep, those parts would be hard for anyone to use or sell, they are very unique and well known to locals. This stealing thing is getting way out of hand. I just heard that the Bird guy on Street Outlaws lost his truck, trailer and race car at some motel while traveling.

And people never seem to see them disappearing !

Are the Ardun heads serial numbered? I hope the car is found quickly.

 

Ardun heads have a production number on each of them (Inside). You can tell if they are your heads by those numbers. Can the owner tell us those numbers so the Ardun community can keep a watch out for them?

 

That blows.

 

Hope the t bucket is returned to the owner quickly.

 

Now that just ****s.Would suggest trolling for Great Whites with them for bait.However,the animal rights people would just prosecute you for trying to poison the sharks.Hope it is quickly found and returned unharmed.
Good luck.Have fun.Be safe.

What a tragedy! Rare, rare heads! No one will be able to hide them, especially since they are first generation heads like mine. Very few of them around and they can easily spotted by the water outlets on the front and rear of heads.

Best of luck finding the trash that stole them. Hope you have insurance.

 

it's good to know humans **** all around the world...
