Default Lots of stolen ford parts

Hi Guys, We had a 26' trailer stolen Monday night. It was loaded with inventory. Mainly bumpers, beds, and running boards. The beds are broken down into pieces for late '50-'56 pickups. Bedsides, fronts, tailgates, and wood floors are all separate. Please be on the lookout for this stuff coming up for sale. There were about 20 beds and 50 bumpers or so from Model A up thru '56 Pickups.

Thanks, Paul

Beds and parts are all bare metal. Trailer was stolen from our store right after we returned from All Ford Carlisle PA. They cut the lock on the gate and the lock on the trailer. I figure they stole it for the trailer and probably don't even know what's inside. We have notified the local scrap yards. These days you just never know.

I would certainly keep a close eye on the scrap yards. Hope you get all back in the same condition it left. Have you put this on the HAMB also?

I would put someone on calling the scrap yards within a couple of hundred miles. Unless they are real stupid (which they might be) they would probably drive it farther away to scrap it.

You can bet they will hit the scrap yards with junk as high as it is.
