Just thought I would pass this along since we would take notice of any
LBC being sold in our own neck of the woods.

STOLEN--H Prod Sprite
The night of 2/25/02 my trailer and race car were stolen from my
residence in Rochester, MI. The trailer is a 24' US Cargo enclosed,
white with no graphics or other distinguishing features. Wheels are
white directionals and the front of the trailer may be very muddy if
the thief has not washed it yet. The car is a 65 Austin-Healey Sprite,
white with green and dark green stripes running along the bottom (like
the old Group 44 cars). It was Peter Morton's old car, for those of
you who remember what his old car looked like. The police and I both
think that the thief was only after the trailer and may have thought it
contained landscaping equipment, so he may try to dispose of the car,
possibly on Ebay. The identity # stamped on the roll cage is
075-9903. If anybody has any information, please email me at
scottmackela@onemain.com.
Additional Information...
The subject line says it all. My 24' US Cargo Enclosed trailer was
stolen last night, along with all the contents including my car. My
Sprite is gone....Everybody please keep your eyes open for it
surfacing, possibly on Ebay or ???? I just bought it in November from
Peter Morton, so those of you who remember his old car, white with
green striping on the lower part of the body, was #46, now it is #4.
There are still some pics of it on his website at www.nobudgetracing.
It now has black American Racing 4-spoke wheels on it. Still carrying
FP on the sides, though it's actually an HP car now. I suspect the
people who stole my trailer had no idea what was inside, so who knows
what they'll do with the car. Identity number on the cage is 075-9903.
Anybody who comes across anything vaguely resembling this car, please
email me off-line.
Thanks, Scott
