Reminds me of a late 1940s Salsbury scooter.

That really sucks.. They probably only wanted the goofy little trailer.
I'm really surprised that someone like Vetter doesn't have enclosed trailer with a receiver lock. |

Good luck to Craig. Keep your eyes on CL and eBay. Lol, like they'll even be able to sell that thing. It's a one-off and is immediately recognize able.

Probably thought it was really expensive. Maybe they got in a car wreck and died already

I wonder if they just wanted the trailer. So sad. I'll keep my eyes open and I hope he gets his machine back. Such losers to take something they didn't work for.

The police found Craig's bike. The trailer is still missing.

I just got back from a work trip and got an email about the theft. By that time Craig had recovered his streamliner but not the trailer. The streamliner sustained some minor damage and Craig had to buy another trailer to get his streamliner home. I always thought that our streamliners would help protect us some from theft because of their uniqueness but I guess not.
