'66 Mustang stolen, reward offered

July 22, 2013
A Boundary County family who'd been out of state for nearly a week returned home Friday to discover a somewhat unusual burglary, and they're offering a $1,000 reward to bring what appears to be an unusually brazen culprit to justice.

What makes this theft unusual is that in addition to items that are easy to cart off, the thieves who hit the home on Trout Creek Road sometime last week also made off with a car.

One that looked very nice, but didn't run. In the final phases of a long and meticulous restoration, this beautiful 1966 Mustang had some critical parts missing, most notably a radiator.

Whoever took this rig didn't just drive it away, they had to have either stowed it in a van or loaded it onto a trailer to abscond with it ... and by whatever means used, they made away with many of the parts needed to get the car running, and more.

The Boundary County Sheriff's Office is asking for information from anyone who may have seen anything out of the ordinary on that rarely traveled road just off the Westside road; call (208) 267-3151, extension 0.

The folks who worked so hard at the restoration want this beauty back, and they're offering$1,000 as an incentive to save it.

Call (530) 307-3626 with any help you can offer.
