Some of you may already know this, but the 37 that Rad Rides built & debuted this past year at SEMA was stolen. Keep a look out for this car. I read stuff like this & it just pisses me off to no end.

A Lowdown Shame; Eaton SEMA car stolen, $5,000 reward offered

(4-12-2006) - Eaton is joining in the worldwide search for “Chocolate Thunder” the $450,000 custom convertible built by Rad Rides that was displayed at the Eaton booth during this year’s SEMA show and won the prestigious Mother's Shine Award. Rad Rides is offering a $5,000 reward for tips that lead to the return of the classic car and arrest and conviction of whoever took it.

The beauty, a 1937 Ford convertible with an Eaton supercharger, limited slip differential and Aeroquip hoses, was stolen around 6 a.m., April 6, from a parking lot in Brockville, Ontario, Canada along with its support trailer and Ford pick up tow vehicle.

Police have no leads and there are fears that the vehicle is headed out of North America and destined to be sold on the black market. It was one of three classic vehicles stolen that week in Brockville.

Rad Rides visionary Troy Trepanier said his team has sunk more than 8,500 hours into building the custom vehicle for its private owner who hasn't even had a chance to drive the vehicle yet. They vehicle was touring car shows throughout North America and was being transported in a 32’ trailer sponsored by Eaton.

Please contact Rad Rides @ (815) 468-2590 with any information.

Hope they find it.. if not I will try and get it as the lead item for the August Speed Reading (that ships in June)..

This stuff makes me sad..

what would anyone possibly do with it ? someone would surely recognize it ?

ad , news i hope they find it and torture the person who stole it !

Oh man, thats terrible. i hope they find it in one piece! :(

Most high end cars like that go to other countries and never seen again. I wonder if they jacked the driver of the trailer after the show on a road or something? Can't have anything nice these days anymore. Really a sad day :(

that would stand out like dogs B***s anywere i cant beleive he would leave that out of his sight i hell wouldnt especially at 450k
id do more than torture him :beathorse

Why do I think they'll find the trailer and tow vehicle empty somewhere? That really sucks. It's kinda a good reason to be glad my car doesn't run. Almost.

hope they get it back .
rick k :(

Thats S@(# All we can do is get the word out.....I sad thing is they probuly will find it is about 10 peices....Like that 70 nova a couple years back....

What a shame!! I hate hearing things like that! I hope they are successful on finding the car!!
