Now that is a thought. Thank you!

For some reason your post reminded me he is a collector and has extensive collections of old Lionel train sets, engineering textbooks and high quality children's books from the 1930s, postcards and stamps. At one time he was into hot rods and still has a Model T with a blown Chrysler hemi. He is a civil engineer. Although he is not Jay Leno wealthy perhaps he could start a hot rod collection?
