Jason,
This wasn't about Smith Brother's love for the car. This is a rumor about a business deal. I don't believe you should be defending Smith brother's intentions in the thread where we have solicited some clarification from the good folks at SAI regarding the rabid rumors going around.

I thought SAI was a privately held company. If it is, how is it that you are privy to if they are in the red or in the black and for how many years.

As for the fight left in the old man, or him going away with a smile on his face.
You are making this sound like a hostile takeover. If it is true, it is merely a busines deal. CNN, AOL, Time-Warner, Disney,ABC etc.do this all the time.

Some work out great, some don't.
Let's hope this is as success story if it comes to pass, not another ENRON.
