This car was stolen along with the trailer it was in. Please keep an eye out for any international sales of this rare car.

How on earth would one get it out of the country?

Bits and pieces to be reassembled at a later time and place?

Please all be aware of a major F,jr Event in Northen Calif in about 10 Days. It would be foolish to try and run it, but parts for sale?
It is a unique car one of about 11 plus a few recreations, perhaps stolen for parts or to copy. 880 lbs on an airplane to San Francisco/LA is not totally outrageous. It has history of Great Train Robbery driver.
I just sold the First one of these from the days to return to F Jr. running in UK

It was a trailer theft! [the race car was probably not the target]

Caravan and Trailer theft is common in NZ [they simply re-register the trailer as homebuilt or rebuilt with no inspection required]

Hopefully the thieves abandon the haul
