Judging by Facebook comments, it's been well publicised!

It's stating the obvious, but it must be heartbreaking for the owner.

I hope that it's found soon.

They should cut the thieves hands off so they can never thieve again. Bastards.

:agree: Paul as do many other sensible human beings.

Why steal it?
Over inflated asking prices for old Fords and their parts?

Compared to a modern car it's not that fast so it can't be that, and this one is too well known to sell, clone, and even in parts it will ring alarm bells.

Seems more than ever we need to keep security at an all time high on our cars!

Shocked is putting it mildly. I know that car very well. Cutting their hands off would be letting them off lightly.
