• After 38 long years, Harold Voelker’s 1956 Ford F-100 pickup truck has been recovered. The truck was stolen in 1972 in Los Angeles. “I go to car shows all the time, and I thought, I’m going to see it one of these days,” Voelker, 63, said Thursday. “That was my baby.” Reunited and it feels so good.
