| bummer Is that a cummins 4BT? That sucks.
I'll keep an eye on the parts board here, ebay, craigslist, etc.
Can you post pictures?
As a side note: that's got to be a killer setup.

| BTW, assuming this truck gets found, it would be really beneficial to find out how they broke in and how they got it started/moved so that the rest of us here can combat it.

| That sux man.....surely this is just a coincidence here, most likely its the unfortunate legit owner, but wanted to make sure this was seen. If the original owner is not in la honda then maybe a lead by contacting the poster. I know its only like 15 miles out but crooks are dumb. 80 series spotted in La Honda, Ca...Mud member?

| thanks for the help... unfortunately... that's where the owner lives. La Honda. So, that would have been before it got stolen. Same truck, though. |

| oh
what a horrible way to start the day
To all in the Bay Area: there is *no* way that a cruiserhead can drive by this truck and not notice it. It looks fantastic and is really, really LOUD at idle. The big C on the side is good identifying feature.
Sure do hope they catch the culprit.

| Be sure to cross post to as many forums as you can think of (if you havent already), and local chapters as well. A ttora member had some high end shocks stolen and mysteriously appeared on his doorstep after exhaustive online and event presence making the issue known. Best of luck to your friend.
