I'll loan you the money if you like.

It might be a typo,or maybe on his 1st vintage car that started it all,and then finally have a videotape made afterwards about his collection.

Looks like he will be getting rid of most of them at the upcoming RM auction in October.

Charlie Thomas was a great owner of the Rockets. Serious car guy and owned the Rockets during the Dream's 1994/95 domination of every other center or forward in league. It was “The Dream Shake” that did it.
