Mustangs & Mysteries: A Pony Disappears

The American muscle car scene is steeped in legend, and few cars hold a place as iconic as the 1969 Ford Mustang Fastback.

But for one Mustang owner in Mesquite, Texas, the dream turned into a nightmare on April 2nd, 2024.

A Classic Stolen: A Tale of Two Fords

Hinch Investigations is on the hunt for a stolen piece of automotive history. A gleaming 1969 Mustang Fastback vanished from a storage facility in Mesquite, Texas. Security footage revealed a surprising detail: the culprit used a seemingly unremarkable early 2000s Ford Explorer to tow away the trailer containing the Mustang. Stranger still? The Explorer lacked a license plate, a cunning trick employed by those who operate in the shadows.

The Details Make the Difference

This particular Mustang wasn’t just any pony car. It boasted the desirable 250hp 351ci 2V V8 engine, making it a true force to be reckoned with on the open road. To aid in its recovery, investigators have released the following information:

• Texas License Plate: BMD683
• VIN: 9R02H171416
• Mesquite Police Department Case Number: 24028024

The trailer was later found abandoned, devoid of its precious cargo. The Mustang, a symbol of automotive passion, had vanished without a trace.
