George W. Barber Jr. (1940–2026). A Porsche racer who built the world's largest Lotus collection. 64 cars. It all started when a 17-year-old in Alabama saw a Lotus Eleven on the cover of Road & Track and slept with the magazine under his pillow. He tracked down that actual car 60 years later. An $80m museum. A friendship with Clive Chapman. A life well lived.
