I noticed in the news that a VW van, that was stolen 35 years ago in 
Spokane, Wash., has been recovered. The owner turned in a claim back 
then so the now FULLY restored van belongs to Alllstate Insurance. 
(Story says van may be worth $27k now)!!!

That story got me wondering how things turned out with some of the 
stolen items people have mentioned on this Spridget list. I remember 
some Spridget body molds being stolen from the folks in Milford Mi, I 
believe. Were they ever located?

And, didn't Willie Thompson have a work truck or trailer taken? I 
don't think he visits this list much but some of you WI guys may know 
how that turned out.

How about others I haven't remembered?
