Please be on the lookout for my black 914/6 race car and white enclosed trailer. These were stolen in southern California from the shoulder of I 15 near Norco southbound side last night after two tires blew out during the transit home from Willow Springs.
Description: Black 914/6 conversion with Sheridan body (Ultimate 914). Vin number: 4752922908. 3.4L six, Weber 46's. Engine number 64C3872.
The trailer is a white Calen with unique features: double door left side, elevated ramps for car to facilitate exit of car within trailer by opening car door.
Trailer California license plate number: 4BO9640
Pictures follow. Owned and raced this car for 20 years - an old friend.

Regarding wheel locks and the fact that they mostly prevent the owner from removing a wheel, I have started telling customers:

"If you feel like wheel locks are necessary on your car, then you should reevaluate your priorities by spending less on your car and more on your neighborhood."

I suppose the same philosophy might apply to one's state/area of residence, in general.

When people ask me for the keys to my car or truck, I reply that they can be found in their natural home: the ignition of the vehicle. I don't lock anything or remove keys from my cars or boat or scooter or motorcycle, and if I start feeling like I have to, I'll move.

I'm really glad you got your car and trailer back, but I'm very surprised that anyone in the SoCal desert would leave a trailer on the side of the road and expect it to be there when they returned.

No emblems on mine. Was going to paint on "Gardening Services", but then they would think i had lawnmowers. Then I thought "Crime Scene Cleaners" would be better.
