We were tipped off to a truly crappy situation by the guys over at MSD. They clued us in on the story of a dude who was attending the 2011 Grand National Roadster show and had his hot rod stolen from the hotel he was staying at. The car is a very cool and distinctive piece, with marking and attributes that make it easy to identify.
Here’s a note from the owner:
My ’32 Roadster was stolen last nite (1/30/2011) from the parking lot of the Sheraton hotel at the LA County Fairplex. I was attending the GNRS and staying at the Sheraton. The car is a semi-gloss black, heavily pin-striped, steel-bodied (Rod Bods), high-boy roadster with a 6-71 blown small block Chev, Wanlass/Rodwell windshield, black leather and aluminum paneled interior. California license number BERBNZ. (Bare Bones)
There’s plenty of distinguishing characteristics on this car which make it unmistakable. I’ve included some photos. If someone is offering you a screamin’ deal on a blower setup (Mooneyham), a steel ’32 roadster body, Chevy small block motor, 700-R4 transmission, 9-inch rear end, American Racing Torque Thrusts and tires, a Wanlass windshield, or any kind of parts, be advised – they could be hot.
If anyone has any information on the whereabouts of my car, please contact me at the number below or the Pomona PD at 909-620-2131 (reference File No. 11-011782)
Here are photos of the car:
