It was stolen from the Monett, Missouri area. Too far out for me to help, but together here we've got 20,000 heads, give or take. Somebody somewhere is bound to see it.

RECOVERED

The Monte has been recovered. Unfortunately, he fuzz hasn't caught the lowlifes that took it. Thanks for the help guys. The 'net's great.

Here' the list of damages....

Good news...


Rick found his car. It appears that the thieves didn't cut the lock off the trailer hitch and didn't use safety chains as they found the car and trailer off the side of a county road - been sitting there since last Wednesday he found out. Apparently the trailer came unhooked when they were pulling up a hill and the car and trailer both went off the road. Trailer is tore up a bit, needs new jack and the hitch repaired. They stole his helmet, tach, battery and screwed up the shifter but he says it appears to be running ok.

Dum basses should be strung up for not having the gumption to go build a car but rather go steal (or try to) a hot car. I've got the same year car. It would just about kill me if someone would do something like that to me and my car.

Skylark, Have you ever seen that car in person? Odd chance, but I was just curious?
