    Happy Thanksgiving All, An Attitude of Graditude!

    Happy Thanksgiving fellow Rosterites!
    Just reflecting on how lucky I/we are to have the opportunity to build these great cars. For most of us these cars are not a necessity. We are in a position that allows us to pursue a bit of a luxury. We have the where-with-all to afford to be able to it, the self confidence to be able to take on the project, the skills to make it happen, and a caring family thats support our efforts. We live in a time and place that makes it all possible. We have a company that genuinely care's about its custumers and fellow enthusiasts to help us along the way. We have the humility that alows us to ask questions and ask for help and advice when needed. Just copping an attitude of graditude for a life that put me in a position to be able to do this.
    Thank You Factory Five, & fellow travelers upon this road!

    Happy Trails

    You are very correct. There's been a good amount of fortune in my life, some dumb luck and some by design, that led me to have the ability and resources to put this Cobra together. And I am thankful.

    We don't have Thanksgiving in Australia, but that doesn't make me any less grateful or thankful for what we have, or the country we live in.

    Allyn, great words. Thank you.
