Great Lakes JeepThing CJ Grill "STOLEN"Please Help

Postby Redbull2 on Tue Mar 09, 2010 9:43 am

Great Lakes Jeep Thing's beloved Jeep CJ grill, 'Bubba' has been sold out from under the club and we would like help tracking it down so we can attempt to buy it back from who ever Erik (OOC) has sold it to.


Long story short the grill was built from donations by the members of GLJT for the club and has been a fixture at club events for the last several years. The member who stored it and had it titled to them sold it off this weekend (we think it was this weekend) without any notice to the club or it's members. Needless to say the club is both heart broken and angry; our members put countless hours into that grill and are all upset to hear that not only is it gone but it was sold without us even having a chance to purchase it back.


For the record the member who stored it had never complained about the finacial burden or ask for somebody else to take over duties even when it was offered on several occasions.


We, obviously, bear no ill will towards the person who purchased Bubba, it is a great grill that any Jeep club or enthusiast would be happy to own and how could they know things where not on the up and up, they took Erik at his word that the whole thing was a legit deal.


If you have Bubba or know who does we would like it if you could get in contact with us regarding purchasing the grill back if possible. We know it is a lot to ask, Bubba is a rare treasure and if I had it I would nto want to give it up either but the people who really own it never had a say in it's sale.

did the guy eric have the title???? because i would think one would have to have the title to sell it im guessing its a trailer...... soooo if eric who has the title, and decides to be a penis and sells it, who stoled it? eric has the title so that means he owns it....idk smells like drama.... sucks for the club that thing looks realy cool. ill keep an eye out for it not like you see one of those every day .... i wonder if eric is reading this right now? well thats a real butt hole thing to do if you eric read this.

Thanks guys, but it looks like that is just another fake post.

I have a feeling it is gone.
