I remember going to Larry Reed's dealership in Beverly Hills. I loved looking at all of the beautiful cars. In high school I actually learned to drive with my parent's car that was purchased there.

I never met Larry Reed, but his "Sports Car" lot at Centinela and La Cienega in Westchester still brings back vivid memories of beautiful British cars of the 60's/70s when I used to walk past this place as a young man.
These cars were just "different" than what most everyone else drove and that made it very cool to look at the cars glistening on the lot.

Thanks Mr Reed for promoting cars and auto racing.
