Are you sure it is a '70 and not a '73? '70's didn't have fuel door covers or bucket seats.

It is a 73.
When I was given the news and pics I just posted without any details.

Was it driven under its own power or possibly trailered ?

Best of luck, will keep eyes peeled

I don’t know! But I assume under its own power since they ransacked the house and property.

There is a stolen vehicle thread in the for sale section.
Hopefully a Mod. will move this to there and leave it here also. Best to get as most coverage as possible. Since they did the house and property it is likely some drug addicts and don't know what they have.

Thanks @RodrigzCrzr @1969FJ It was most likely driven out under its own power. The main gate to the property was locked when the cops showed up so they either had keys to the gate or used one of the 4x4 trails that goes by the property. Seeing that they stole some other things like flatbed trailers and machinery, we are suspecting that the local Edison hired contractors were culprits. They have keys to all the propertys in the area.

Looks like the 40 was spotted tucked up in some trees in a yard a town over. After a few posts on Facebook by my mom and her friend someone messaged that they saw the cruiser. Cops are involved. Hopefully the rest of the stuff is found.

That's what I was thinking in the other thread it's probably still in the area.

Good luck on retrieving it!
