Hi gang. Thought I'd give everybody a heads-up. I've recently been ripped off by someone that is a family member. What has happened is I purchased a 77 Ranger for either parts or restoral. Stored it at a relative's. The $#^$# sold the thing from under me this weekend!! If anybody sees any 77 Ranger items for sale here or on EBay and they're anywhere between Detroit and Toronto PLEASE send me a note....AND DON'T BID OR BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS TRUCK!!! The Bronco was complete and not a single part was missing. I have the bill of sale in MY name! You'll be buying stolen goods. Thanx.

Holy want ads Batman! You have got to be kidding? Hopefully this is a bad joke, or they actually sent it off to be restored to surprise you.

Way it works around here is to call the Cops.If you know where it is/was will help.Also who had it when it vanished?Treat it as any stolen vehicle.

Call the cops. It is a fair response to what has happened... better to do it sooner rather than later.. or you will be trying to collect pieces from everywhere.

Call the cops, report it as a stolen vehicle. Tell them that your relitive was the last one to have seen it since it was on there land. Give address and phone number of the relitive to the cops. Blood may be thicker then water, but broncos are thicker then blood.

if you have a bill of sale, i'm thinking that you paid for the bronco. do you have the title? either way, why not report it is stolen. seems totally reasonable to me.

WHY? What made him think he could sell your truck. Did he think you wouldn't mind(sarcastically)? That is bad. I hope you get it back. Good luck tracking it down!
