Larry Clain B/Motion collector dies/cars STOLEN

[Dave Rifkin]

Have there been any new developments regarding the search for these two stolen Motion Corvettes?

[55chevy]

No new developments.. All the cars from his shop including the Baldwin/Motion GT Vettes and other parts are still out there somewhere STOLEN.. Larry's estate has been settled and as far as I know everything he had will be auctioned, don't know when. And his benificiaries will each get 1/3. Thats all I've heard. I've just been sickened by the whole thing and Larry's loss and what's happned to his cars has really left me in a place with little desire for this hobby right now.. He was a great motivator and friend when it came to these cars.. I have a room in my house where I have all my car stuff... magazines and books organized... model cars..etc. looks like a car library... and I ain't been in there in months... It's just not been a good year.

My guess is that they may show up in a country that is far away from the long arm of the law.

Stealing cars and shipping them overseas has become a big issue.

Ed,,,The only thing I know how to do is to tell you to be posative. Larry would want that. It is a tragedy that he has passed and a tragedy that his cars and belongings disappeared but also a tragedy that you are not living the way he would have wanted you to. I am going thru torture right now because my friend and partner in "Red Alert", Terry Carney is about as sick as a human can be and still be on earth. Cancer has hold of him and just doesnt want to let go. Terry needs posative attitudes around him at all times because its so easy to get down in a situation like that. I have actually found the whole experience to be much easier to understand and get through by being as posative as I possibly can. Hope this helps. Say a prayer for Terry as he desperatly needs it.......Bill S

Bill- I know Terry and am aware of what has been going on with him. I have felt really bad about it. I just heard an update today and understand that Terry is convinced that he will beat it. This attitude is the best to have during a situation like this. I am rooting for him.

Sorry to changes subjects.. Ed, I agree with Bill. Larry would probably sock you in the head if he was here now. If Larry is watching he wants you to be happy. Try your best and in the meantime hopefully the creeps involved with the theft will get there's. I'd say that is my Xmas wish this year... Merry Christmas Pal.

[55chevy]

I don't mean to sound down or negative.. Just haven't been thinking about the car stuff much recently.. My kid and other things have been filling my time lately. But don't worry.. I'll be back. And thanks guys.. Hope you ALL had a great Christmas.

You to Ed and have a Happy New Year

I'm heading to Chicago next week and I hope Terry is up for a visit. I know that he really wants to be in Florida for the big auction in one month. He still likes talking cars and that's a good sign.
