other dog Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 yep, after much research I found a picture of the first car Larry drove. Built it himself in the 60's when he was a mere lad of 15. Started on it when he was 13, 2 years later he had a ride anyone would be proud to drive! Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

other dog Posted June 30, 2012 Author Share Posted June 30, 2012 My research indicates that Larry was something of a daredevil in his youth.
