He is not a dedicated builder altho it looks like it...he is a collector and has about 150 (I think) cars presently of all types. The nice thing about his collection is that they are all driven/rotated and many tracked.
The other good thing for the hobby is he has hired 12-15 permanent craftsmen to build, rebuild and maintain the cars...English wheel/wooden buck kind of thing....and the metal fabricators/frame guy is amazing.
He has a couple of older Maserati's I'd kill for....
I'll be out there in Feb for the Boca Raton Concours (Larry is the honored collector and will show 16 cars) and will get to help his manager do whatever (as a nug lol) and drive one of the cars to the show as it is nearby.
I'll post pics of his collection.
