we got ur back here in northern nevada-- effing thieves! Towing a rig is pretty brazen.

A local army recruiting office had a similar truck about 5 years ago and it was always parked in front of their office in a strip mall on a busy street. Some brave crooks stole the entire front axle right where it was sitting. amazing.

Good luck Fred!

Sun Valley? was this any where near the Cars & Colors collision shop on Glenoaks? I swear I've seen this before near there.
I lived in Tujunga for 22 years and I'm a local to Sun Valley. I swear I've seen that rig down there.

bmx4ever · 01-20-2010, 09:12 PM

This suck's. I'll keep my eye's peeled.

fcfred · 01-29-2010, 07:32 PM

white Yukon the suspects were driving.

mikevyota · 01-29-2010, 07:58 PM

I'll keep an eye out in Vegas for you. It's weird how things end up here.

pk · 01-29-2010, 10:46 PM

Why are security cams so bad? I use cheap web cams at home and the pictures are crystal clear.

But what really sucks is that crime is shooting through the roof and cops are getting laid off.

gr8pumkin · 01-29-2010, 11:08 PM

The guys at Pac Fab were telling me about this sorry to hear about it. But on the bright side the new er older rig is coming along!

SeaBass44 · 01-30-2010, 10:11 AM

that sucks so bad!
this rig was the 1st in cab winch panel I made for a 4x4 mag

let me know whenever you need a panel for one of your projects Fred
hopefully I'll make the top ten this year & meet everyone

miguelitojeep · 01-30-2010, 11:51 AM

troyman · 02-01-2010, 08:14 PM

That really sucks to hear, keep an out around here for ya - really enjoyed watching that build up too

Isn't that the rig that was being partially built recycling parts from previous project/Ultimate Adventure rigs that were being taken apart?

desertwheeler · 02-12-2010, 09:59 PM

THAT SUCKS!!! I will keep an eye out too. Hopefully it turns up in 1 piece.

IrkedCitizen · 02-17-2010, 04:50 PM

I don't know if you have been shown this and I can't really tell from the small CL picture if it is your truck. But this might be worth checking into.

wow.......thats looks A LOT like the truck but with smaller tires. Has anyone called fred about this yet?

Stic-o · 02-17-2010, 11:12 PM

I don't think that it, the guy is selling the whole truck on there too, but claims it's a '84 with a 400 trans. Fred is a '86 with a stick. Keep the good work though

Willyswanter's Dad · 05-14-2010, 11:34 PM

Fred, any updates?

carslut · 06-07-2010, 12:34 PM

ejlarson · 05-11-2012, 02:28 PM

It's been over 2 years since OP has posted in this thread. Does it really need a bump?

4 years ago I had a 4wheeler stolen (400 EX), and Got a call two weeks ago that it had been found and recovered. They went to register it for street use and the AZ Police confiscated it. Of course the guy who registered it Did not get charged. After getting the quad back it was in better shape then when it was stolen (Stock with a few hours on it). Came back with all kinds of upgrades.

.

Point of the story is, Theres still a chance! I had written off never seeing it again.

Brimmstone · 07-17-2012, 05:10 PM

Pretty damn sure I just saw it here in Beaumont Tx. Not many trucks like that with a stick shift in it. Friend says it is located few houses down from him
