At 1:08am Saturday night/Sunday morning, a buddy of mine had his car stolen from a hotel parking lot in Columbus, Ohio while attending the Good Guys show.
The thieves stole the car, trailer and the pickup truck.
The truck is a 1994 Chevy extended cab, lowered with a blue to purple fade paint job.
The trailer is an open wheel trailer manufactured by American Dream.
The car is a Pro Street '67 Pontiac Lemans (GTO). It is Burnt Orange with a Blueish arrow type graphic on the side. It is tubbed with Weld Draglites, a Pontiac blower motor, roll bar, custom interior with Autolite Guages, aluminum fuel cell, aluminum radiatior, and LOTS of other goodies. I watched over the last 6 years as this car was being built from the ground up. Lots of money and time have been put into this vehicle. Please help us find it.
If anyone has ANY information on any of the above vehicles, please contact your local police department, the Columbus Police Department and myself immediately. You can reach me at 419-562-2277.
Also, please copy this post and post it on other websites you frequent. The more people that see this, the better. Thanks for the space.

Anyways, I live in Cincinnati, so I'll keep a lookout for anything that looks like that, just incase they're passing through or I see them hanging out with the car clubs on the weekend nights.

RE: Stolen Car Alert '67 Pro Street Lemans (GTO)
My bet is the car is still in the area it was stolen from, think about it, a Pro Street GTO on open trailer??? You can't just go down the road with that, it's sitting in a garage less than 10 miles from where it was taken I would bet. Now if the truck and trailer turn up, the car was probably loaded into an enclosed trailer and who knows where it is. The thing is most theives are really dumb, I hope they catch the dirt bags.

at the mopar nationals a few years ago, 5 or 6 cars, including a few factory hemi cars were stolen..ON trailers from brice road in columbus...it happens all the time...the problem is that the state of ohio is one bit pile of crap. the hood rats that attend OSU crawl out of their ditches to brice road to cause trouble and steal cars...when i took my car there, i had a huge master lock on the trailer, and although we had a hotel room, i slept in the motor home.
sucks about your car man, but welcome to columbus.

well, when i go to the track, although my car isnt worth much to a collector, its worth alot to me...so when left at the track at national events, it is covered, the doors are locked, the fibgerglass hood has small locks through the pins, the fuse for the fuel pump is removed, plus none of my switches are labeled, so i dont know that someone could even get my car to run. when i take it back to the hotel with us, it is covered on the trailer, with the hitch locked onto the motor home, and the trailer locked onto the hitch. the fibgerglass is locked down, the trunk is locked down, and i have the straps so tight that when you release one, the car will move a bit on the trailer, and that moves the motor home. i think its crap that the police in reynoldsburg and columbus patrol all night to make sure that no one does burnouts on the street..but people can walk off with vintage muscle cars?
