Stolen Fords recovered
FB won't let me copy the picture. The two stolen Fords, a roadster and a pickup were recovered. Two men were caught and multiple charges will be issued.

Re: Stolen Fords recovered
Article sez the thieves traded the Ts for a Lexus and Infiniti?
Sounds like they “stole” four cars in total!

Re: Stolen Fords recovered
I don't understand... they look like such fine, upstanding citizens...
In the old days, The T was a family's horse... and back then, they had a set penalty for horse thieves...

Wow, usually when old stuff disappears it's gone for good. Glad to see the bodyshop owners co-operated with the policemen--

Re: Stolen Fords recovered
Hey that's the town next to where I live. I guess I need to keep a better eye on my Ts.

Geez! And here I thought three pedals on the floor were an effective anti-theft device.

I don't think that they "co-operated", blind-luck that the deputy came to the body shop for a different case and found the stolen property.

I think you need to keep your eyes peeled mostly if they're out on bond or when they're parolled

Re: Stolen Fords recovered
It looks like the news people switched identifications: The cars shown are a 1925 Pickup Truck and a 1927 Roadster, not the other way around.

Re: Stolen Fords recovered
I wonder what the motivation was to steal them
