Police are appealing for assistance after a classic Ford Falcon, vehicles and property worth $300,000 were allegedly stolen from a commercial property on Hamilton Road in New Gisborne last month.
Police were told unknown people allegedly driving two utilities attended the property about midnight on Monday, October 17.
“It is believed they gained entry by cutting a locked gate to the property and once inside stole a 1971 blue/green Ford Falcon XY GT registration 8999H8 replica sedan worth $130,000,” police said.
“The offenders also stole a truck and trailer and used a forklift inside to load the truck with a ride-on lawn mower, water tanks, tools, water pumps and electric tools.
“They fled the scene, driving two utes, one with the trailer attached and in convoy with the stolen Ford Falcon and truck.”
Police have released images of the allegedly stolen Ford and trailer in the hope someone may recognise them.
