FYI the Hotel admitted to Joe, the next morning, that this is not the first time vehicles/trailers have been stolen from their parking lot.

Hope they catch the bastards who did it and hurt them in the most painful way possible. Sorry that this happened to you. Can't begin to imagine how bad it would feel.

Truck and trailer found 20mins away. Lotus still missing.

Dark Green fenders and nose with polished aluminum
Red interior and dash

This is a real Lotus 7 Series 2 restored to original condition.

These are some of the easily identified (and hard to disguise features):
- Right hand drive
- Wooden steering wheel
- 155x13 tires on Minilite rims
- Air scoop on left side of hood
- Tow ring under right front frame rail
- 1500 miles on speedometer

WOW! That is fabulous. Not many trailer (and contents) thefts are resolved so completely.
