bump in the area news. the unkindest cut!

Post by mlheppl »

An albuquerque Viet Nam vet had his 69 F100 Ranger stolen. Looks like he was just about done restoring it.

probably some less than savory Tow company employee if it was towed with a tow truck.

Most likely it's south of the border. Seems most trucks that get stolen around here end up wearing a sombrero. One of the local TV stations used to do a segment on the most frequently stolen vehicles here in NM. The F series trucks were always on the list.
