Bellmead investigators are looking for the crooks who stole a 1985 Chevrolet Silverado pickup and a 1979 Chevrolet Corvette and then used the truck to tow the Corvette to Dallas.

The thefts were reported on July 9.

The stolen pickup was found the next day in a residential neighborhood in Dallas, but the Corvette remains missing.

The two vehicles were last seen at the Road Ranger truck stop at 6615 North Interstate 35 Frontage Rd.

Witnesses reported seeing the truck pushing the Corvette.

Police later obtained a surveillance video that showed the Corvette being towed from the truck stop.

The missing Corvette is red and has Texas license plate DP9-T172.

The family also said they are offering a $1,500 reward.
