escortmad79 Posted March 19, 2018 Report Share Posted March 19, 2018 Green 1929 Ford Model A Roadster reg BF7875 was stolen from a layby on the A449 between Ross on Wye & Much Marcle on Sunday 18th March 2018. The car, which had been competing in the Vintage Sports Car Club Herefordshire Trial on the Saturday was parked up in the layby on a trailer. Due to adverse weather the owner deemed it unsafe to continue his journey towing the car so left it in the layby. When he returned to collect the car on the Sunday, it along with the trailer had gone. Witnesses saw the car still in the layby at 16:15 on Sunday so it was taken after that time. The car is completely standard & is green with black fenders & beige wire wheels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnyspencer Posted March 29, 2018 Report Share Posted March 29, 2018 They only weigh just over a ton. A golf would pull it easy, It looks a lot heavier I must admit. Very happy to see its been recovered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
