Unhappy My project roller has gone missing

I was cleaning up around the yard, and moving stuff into my storage shed and my 73 912 roller body is now gone. Looks like someone did pull up with a truck or something - fat tire marks in the grass. Not sure when it happened, or WHY anyone would want an old 912 body that needs work. Its primer brown and the passenger side door area needs weld work. Totally stripped out, only had the rear tires on it, which I figured would deter people from trying to lift and move it.

Anyways, I am up in NH, if anyone hears or knows anything I would appreciate a shout. Either here, or you can email me at home - purwinc@adelphia.net

thanks

Charles

Have you checked under any large piles of leaves? I've heard 912's are partial to this habitat when hybernating in the winter.

I might have borrowed it from you. If it's yours, don't worry, it is in safe hands. I will contact you offline about it.

Just to make sure we are talking about the same roller, does it look like this?

And THAT is why we need some zoning laws in NH. ( of course if we were down south it would be some guy with a camaro on blocks in his front yard so I guess we should be grateful LOL)

thanks for all the kind words guys :-)
Was it 77 they ressurected the 912? Hard to keep track of all that, never mind the roller itself!

PlaidLint - yea I look forward to your explaination as that does look like my baby alright. Start talking, cause I am not overly happy right now. (gee imagine that)
