Stolen C10 from eastern North Dakota - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Not mine but saw on facebook. This is in eastern North Dakota, so MN/SD/IA are all real possibilities.

Will watch from the south.

^ Indeed. It's pretty distinctive, so probably inside a cargo trailer. That stinks.

One good thing modern social media is good for, getting the word out and getting eyes looking. And you can practically get law inforcements attention 24/7 with a social post, instead of calling.
Hope he finds it in one piece.

I'll sure keep an eye out...What a beautiful truck! Bummer!

**68350** · 05-16-2023, 08:24 AM

Truck was located!

72c20customcamper · 05-16-2023, 08:45 AM

I hope it’s still all together. Good news though

**ghackett1** · 05-16-2023, 09:08 AM

I’m very happy for you!

Glad to hear the truck was located, but was the thief apprehended as well?

I hope so, but the update on their post did not specify any of that.

**Louisvillekytruck** · 05-16-2023, 10:45 AM

Glad to hear

Here in Texas a owner just south of me caught up to a truck thief (not a classic) and shot and killed him!

I am not at all saying this the proper way to handle things but each time I hear/read of a stolen vehicle I think, did the thief get shot?

Are the horse thief laws still on the books, ever there in Texas?

Not a limerick but the chorus to a Disney TV show about the adventures of John Horton Slaughter. One time Texas Ranger, Confederate veteran and later Arizona rancher and lawman. He was elected Sherrif of Cochise County AZ, serving 2 terms.
Tom Tryon played him in a TV series in 1958.

Unfortunately horse stealing is now only a felony in Texas, a 10 year sentence. Classic car & truck thievery should be more severely dealt with. It would stop a lot of the classic vehicle thefts, or at least remove the thieves for a couple decades.

**DANTIP** · 05-17-2023, 12:22 PM

Glad to hear it was recovered!! Hope the perp(s) are caught and maybe experience a little "Prairie Justice"!
