Merry Christmas Clyde. Man, it's been cool here in Gwinnett, but it looks like you North Atlanta folks have been getting the real chilly weather. I just got my first Christmas present. My brother sent me a copy of "Cobra The Shelby American Original Archives 1962-1965". I haven't had time to peruse it in detail, but what I've seen so far is pretty cool!

Tony,
My wife gave me the same book. By Dave Freidman, Rright?

I wonder if my wife and your brother have been shopping together

Great book by the way, I finally found out what a FIA Cobra was and how it came about. Now I have ALL the answers.

Terry, I'm looking forward to spending a bit of time buried in the book. I was popping around in it this morning and read the piece about the babe who wrote the lyrics to My Little Cobra, later recorded by the Rip Chords. She actuall owned an original. Now I can see the motivation for the song.

Carol King (of The Teddy Bears / To Know Him is to Love Him fame) is the Babe for those who don't know that little bit of trivia. Gawaaaaad - She must be as old as me now.

That deer is still alive, the Wild Turkey is taking a hit though!!

I don''t see any packages that look like a book so far, but I saw a delivery from Griots Garage arrive the other day..... then it was whisked away to a secret location....

Default Happy Holidays

ACC;
Hope all have a safe and Happy Holiday....

Sorry I have been a bit out of touch, but my father passed away a few days before Thanksgiving, and recently started a new job which has me hopping....

Hope to see you all soon.

Charlie,

So happy to hear the good news, so sad to hear the bad news. I myself can somewhat relate (Dad wise) but not to that scale. I really am glad to hear you are "hopping" and would love to hear more and swap some war stories on the industry. My condolences, but I also want to wish you a happy and prosperous New Year to you and to those your dad touched.

Thanks for the note TC....btw, can't wait to see the car.

This has been a very special group, and thanks to all for the support.

I hope to re-connect in 2004!!

Have a great Holiday....

Charlie

I think it was Carol Conner who wrote the lyrics but I may be wrong....

Best to all of you guys. Merry Christmas and wishing everyone a happy and prosperous new year. Echoing Charlie, this is a good group. Hope to see more of everyone in 04.

Charlie, I'm sorry to hear of your dad's passing. I'm sure you are remembering good times over the holidays.

DC
