Re: Larry Clain RIP

Sorry to hear the news on both accounts. I always wonder when I see websites that broadcast to the world where certain cars are located...

Hope they catch the scumbags,

Verle,

Read all the posts over at the SuperCar Registry website, I also hope his beloved cars are found intact and recovered. Most suspect an inside job of some sort to pull this off.

Yes, I am aware of the SuperCar forum thread.

We are in contact with Dee, his partner, about all this.
