A rare, one-of-a-kind racecar dating from the 1970s has been stolen in Portland while it was being sold, with the sale intended to raise money for one of its co-owners' Parkinson's disease treatment. The theft has been described as a new low for the city, highlighting how the crime has disrupted an effort to fund urgently needed medical care rather than simply resulting in a financial loss.

The article does not provide further verified details of the incident, such as the exact make of the vehicle, the identities of those involved, or the current status of any police investigation. As reported, the core facts are that the unique 1970s racecar was taken from Portland during the sale process, and its co-owner had been relying on the proceeds to help cover treatment costs for their Parkinson's condition.
