Default Closing Today - Happy Holidays

Hi guys,

Today is the last day before we close before the 5th. If anyone still needs anything try to call before noon eastern standard time.

I couldn't believe we were actually going to have 3 weeks off to relax and I was right. Last Friday, Enzo went in for an emergency double bypass. He had 100% and 90% blockage in his two main arteries. We had no clue. Most of you know about my beloved grandson CJ and now God has put Enzo on his back for awhile. Now I will take care of him during these 3 weeks and he will be back strong as ever. He comes home from the hospital today!!

Anyway, I still feel blessed and grateful for everything and I'm wishing all of you a good holiday season, a wonderful time with your families and a healthy New Year.

Prayers are with those who are in the hospital, but must be nice to have 3 weeks off, where do you work?

Paula,

You are one tuff woman I must say and God has certainly given you challenges to deal with lately. I think you can handle it! My prayers go out to your grandson and Enzo and to you and your immediate family as well. Have a safe and Merry Christmas.

Clois

My best to Enzo--and to you. Remind him to allow himself enough time to fully recover from this ordeal!

Paula,
Thanks for posting this. Best wishes for Enzo's speedy recovery.

This a good reminder for me to schedule the stress test that I have been putting off.

Paula:
Our prayers are with you and your family. I know it is scary situation, but in the next three weeks he will be ready to take on the world again. We look forward to his return to Finishline. I know he will probably want to be back driving as soon as possible, but as long as he listens to his body and doesn't push it, he'll recover quite nicely.

I know from experience. I had a 5-way heart bypass. That was 9 years ago, and I enjoy life more each day.

Stay strong! This will be a memorable holiday for sure!

Bruce

Paula, Enzo, and the entire Alibrandi family,
My prayers go out to all of you. I so enjoyed meeting you in November of 2007, when Brenda, Angela, and I went on our KIT CAR Tour of Florida. You're such warm, hospitable people, we didn't want to leave.

Enzo, please make sure you take it easy enough in the coming weeks to allow your body to heal. Everyone who knows you is aware of how strong your heart is. Now, you need to build up those arteries that surround it, so that you can be around for the next 100 or so years.

Have a Happy Holiday Season and a Healthy, Prosperous New Year!

Paula:

Been there...done that in June 2000. Tell Enzo to be fully compliant for a full recovery, ie. either 25 years or 25,000 miles, which ever comes first. If he needs someone to compare CABG stories/experiences with, have him PM. God Bless you and your loved ones.

Hi Paula, Rich in Daytona Beach. It's been 12 years since Enzo got me into a Cobra. Oh how I remember the one stall garage, and how we did a photo shoot of his Everett Morrison & my Unique at the Daytona Speedway for Kit Car. Anyhow wish him my best and before you know it he'll be back in top shape. We all have bumps in the road in our life time. I'm a 5 year cancer survivor and life goes on. My prayers are with you and your family..Best wishes, Rich.............

Best wishes for a New Year with less "bumps in the road' for you and your family, Paula.

Please give my best to Enzo and CJ.
