    I was watching HGTV the other night and I pleasantly stumbled upon this episode.

    A Family Castle and Fantasy Indoor Pool : Rooms : Home & Garden Television

    Picture #16 in the above link is what caught my eye.

    Just curious to if anyone has any better pictures or information pertaining to this collection.

    I'm pretty sure that the owner mentioned during the episode that he owned a Ferrari dealership in Ohio. It was definitely a dream collection and one that I would love to see more photos of.

    Brian Ross is a developer.

    Obviously he's pretty good at it.

    I believe that the Vancouver dealership being his was the consensus last time this was brought up.

    He lives in Ohio, 20 minutes from me and I've never seen one of his cars out and about :(

    He saw a Ferrari at the doctor's office when he was a kid; doc gave him a ride and he's been fascinated ever since. Lives in Cortland but owns FoV, personal collection ranges from a 166 to an Enzo, and most of the stuff in between; he also owns a 410 Sport (0596 CM).

    I believe that's 0596 CM (the Scaglietti-bodied 1956 410 Sport).

    Carroll Shelby raced one of the 410 Sports, #98. Could this be it?

    I met Brian Ross at the Vancouver Auto Show. Great guy. We car chatted for a half hour. When I got excited about the cars he owned and asked if he could take me for a ride in his Enzo he told me that he would let me drive it (never did take him up on that offer). He had his Enzo, 84 GTO, F40 and F50 on disply for six months at his dealership in Vancouver.

    Interesting that none of the cars have visible battery tenders.

    His taste in cars is great!
    His taste in furbishing and designing his house is ....eh...doubtful. Pure Kitsch IMHO....

    When I was there, he took the 410S and the 212 out and ripped them around his extremely long driveway. It was the most amazing sounds I've ever heard. He also started the Mexico and it gave me goosebumps!

    When you are hosting an event, you make sure everything is good to go and remove the battery tenders :)

    Even I do that! Of course there is only one...
