Larry Clain B/Motion collector dies/cars STOLEN

I talked to Larry some via email and PM's,trying to help him in his quest to document his New York Auto Show/magazine cover BM Vette.

Although my leads were futile,Larry was just glad to have a straw to grasp at,and seemed to very much enjoy the thrill of the chase.

IMO he was the ultimate car guy.He bought and held on to a couple of the rarest Vettes ever made,and enjoyed them for what they are. He never tried to capitalize on thier value,never had a bad word to say to anyone,and treated everybody he ever met like he would like to be treated. A rare breed indeed he was.

So I say don't mourn Larry's passing,because he lived a great life,experianced things that others can only imagine ,and brought joy to us regular car guys who could only dream of buying BM Vettes for $3200 dollars.He did his best.That's all you can do.

I'm sure the scum that defiled his legacy will be brought to justice.It's a shame it happened,but in this day and age it's not surprising.
