[1950_Buick]

***sorry admins if this is in the wrong section, but just wanted to get the word out there***

Some of you may or may not have heard of Hot Rodders of Tomorrow Engine Challenge. It's a great organization that gets high school kids into automotive and is across the country. It's non-profit and run on the backs of some private guys and has national recognition.

Unfortunately, some douchebag(s) have stolen a trailer with all their equipment in Southern California.

If you can be on the lookout, here is their post and facebook link:

Hot Rodders of Tomorrow Needs Your Help!

Our West Coast Truck and Trailer have been stolen in California.

Please be on the lookout for the Hot Rodders Of Tomorrow TRUCK & TRAILER!

If you see, hear or know anything about this please contact us @ 815-722-5460

Please share this with everyone on Facebook!

If you hear of anyone trying to return or sell any Edelbrock carbs, manifolds, heads, air cleaners or MSD ignitions or Hedman Hedders, engine stands or anything automotive you should make sure they are not stolen.

The truck and trailer were stolen in San Jacinto, CA. So everyone in Southern California should be extremely aware of this event.

We have filed a police report if anyone needs this information.
Thank you in advance for your help and attention.

And please forward to everyone!!!
Respectfully submitted,
Hot Rodders Of Tomorrow.

Scum can't keep their hands off of stuff that ain't theirs..

At least it won't be hard to see if their towing it around. I'm sure it will be found and stripped.

That seems to be a wrap so I imagine the first thing they'll do is pull that off. It might be helpful to get the make of the trailer (Featherlite), the base color (probably black with a white roof) and anything else that would make it identifable like maybe anything welded in or that sort of thing. I'd love to see these bastards gelded - killing is over too quickly.

given the very short kingpin area..the kind of vehicle to tow it would be limited, custom.

did they take the truck too?

Here's an update from the Hot Rodders of Tomorrrow regarding the theft....
Update on the Theft of our West Coast Truck and Trailer. Our Trailer has been found in the Desert near the Beaumont, CA.
Unfortunately we are still missing our 2001 GMC Topkick C7500 and the stole EVERYTHING except our counters and crates for the flooring. They have also caused a ton of damage to the Trailer. We currently are working with the Insurance company to figure out what the next step is. Please pray for us, and keep on the look out for our Truck.
Thank you for all your encouragement over the last week. We all volunteer to help these students out, and are not going to give up because of a few bad people.

Kind of depressing that folks cannot keep their hands off stuff that does not belong to them...
Then to steal this and strip it like that? Makes me puke!
