Larry says "In mid 2006 I sold my Roofing/ Sheet Metal/ HVAC Company and now am a happy employee. My lovely wife Heidi is still very tolerant of me. When I sold my company I lost my storage for all the project cars I had gathered over the last 20 some years (32 Edsels, 6 Cadillac’s, 4 thunderbirds, 5 Corvairs, and a few more). Actually I had only slowed their trip to the crusher as that was where most of them were headed when I obtained them. I still have my nice 1958 Edsel Convertible, a nice 1975 Cosworth Vega, and several projects that may get new life in them in the next couple of years. I turned 60 this last August and feel great!!! 3 years ago I grew a beard and buzzed my head just for my drivers license picture and have liked my hair and beard this way so much I have kept it like that for over 3 years now."
