As our own Jeff Koch can attest, Southern California is an easy place to have your collector car jacked. One of the latest victims turned up on our My Hemmings pages a couple of days ago.
Robert ushered in the New Year in the worst way imaginable: Waking up to find his 1956 Nomad hotrod gone. He describes her as:
VIN# VC56S163572. Yellow 1956 CA plate XEJ 873. She’s black and white, with a white roof, 283 yellow eng, 3 spd on the column, bucket seats, black and white interior, front disc brakes, she was perfect for me and I really miss her. PLEASE be on the lookout for her, please let me know if you see her.
It’s a beautiful and distinctive car, even in SoCal, so keep your eyes peeled. If you don’t want your chop shop-running neighbor coming by with a sawed-off 12-gauge, you can leave a message here.
