The decision of the trial court is reversed and we hereby declare that plaintiff is the holder and owner of a first lien against the Rambler station wagon and plaintiff's rights are superior to any claim or rights of defendants. We also declare that by taking possession of and claiming ownership of said automobile defendants Blair Carroll Rosdail, C. Earle Fletcher, Tom Fletcher and Meyrl B. Finch converted same.
The case is reversed and remanded to the district court for further proceedings in harmony with this opinion and without prejudice to the right of any defendant to reassert his cross-petition. Costs are hereby taxed to defendants.
