Hey, posted at the other 55 section too. Just found out sometime over the christmas break my 55 was stolen from my cousins apartment near Denver. 74 55 with red and white. 3 speed. Like it a lot... any clues would be great. Thanks

Bummer. Keep an eye out on the auction/classified sites. Sorry about the pig.

What did the police say about the apartment complex towing it? Has it been sitting? Is it inoperable? Did it have current plates?

What are the plates on it?
Color?
Distinguishing features - lift, tires, etc?

Denver has a pretty tight Cruiser community. Check with the businesses Ige mentions in her post.

Your post was brief and left me wanting more info so we can help you out!

Quoted from the 40/55 section...

...and the Pig community in Denver is even tighter...no way that will be parted out without someone knowing...

That makes me sad/angry...

Did the police get prints?

Glad you still have your '74. I am going to go hug mine now.

Where is our original poster with details?

This is bullshit. I don't like to hear about this kind of thing. My rigs may be ugly old 4x4s but I'm more protective of them than I should be...
Pinstriping? Dirt? Gotta have it - battle scars.
Roll it over or flop? Fair enough - stuff happens.
Someone else dings one of 'em with a shopping cart? It's on.

My Pig disappears?... All I see is red.

Get some Pics up. Hope everything works out as best it can.

Post up as many pics of it as you can otherwise we won't know what to look for!!!

PabloCruise · 01-07-09, 02:47 PM

I am wondering where the original poster went?

This seems odd...
