Just a FYI  there is a white DC that lives in the IE. Its owned by a fireman I think, so no jumping the gun!! or the bat  |
Maybe somebody knows the fireman's truck better, maybe has rear bumper, no corner damage, etc. just to be sure. The sighting by toydude111 is possibly the best lead I've ever heard of in a multistate car theft! Good luck Cory, if you need help towing it back etc. I'd love to help.

I have had my fingers crossed hoping this story turns around for the positive. Makes me think twice about installing some sort of theft deterant on my '59. |
Amen about the positive...
Me too, considering all you need to steal one is 2-3 feet of wire... I keep my truck behind the bus while out of the garage.
Damn man... I keep hoping to see "I got it back" in one of these posts...

Just a thought. Is there a point when driving a bus from Lake Havasu to so. cal. that you HAVE to stop and buy gas? If so, I would be checking gas station security cameras at that point.

I had nothing to do with it, I swear.  I will keep my eyes open down here in San Diego. It sucks I know. I've been through this myself.

What about the agriculture check point where they ask you about fruits and vegies?

Good point about the ag stops but I believe there are a few different ways to go that don't have them. If I see your DC in Sac, I'll be sure to follow them. I really want to see you get this back!

On the 10 they don't talk to you anymore. 1/2 the time I went through recently no one was even out there. You just stop and go again like a stop sign.

There is an ag stop on rice road (maybe the route they took and one on I 40. If it was a planned heist they might of know how to bypass the ag stops, someone needs to check with them. I'm sure every vehicle that goes through is caught on video

Last night 2-15-2010 some one stole my double cab from my home. Every one who comes to BBB in Lake Havasu has seen it. It is white and the interior is still stock. It is a 1963.
