Reply to "Christmas Wishes!"

Thank you George, Mark, Coz, Jack and each and every contributor, visitor, moderator and enthusiast who views or uses this BB. Everybody have a healthy, happy and prosperous New Year - 2006.

These are our prayers and thoughts: We are hoping for world peace. Thank you to all of the service men and women who are helping keep our country safe and secure. Bless all of our leaders. We also remember sadly those who have departed us this past year, including Bill Santos. Thank you to all of the club leaders, event organizers (especially racing events), contributors to PI and our members who have helped us continue to grow our organization.

Although the DeTomaso factory may now be shuttered, there is a small flicker still burning at the factory location that may shortly grow into a functioning parts and restoration facility with the DeTomaso DNA at the helm. Special thanks also to Tom Tjaarda who has given so much of his personal time whenever he is asked. We hope to be making a special annoucement with in the next few weeks about a very exciting project he is working on that will result in a Tjaarda designed sportscar being sold in the U.S. Thank you to all the DeTomaso merchants who have continued to innovate and offer new products, keep our cars running and create markets for buyers and sellers. We salute our sister organization, POCA for their efforts in keeping the Las Vegas Rallye alive and through their chapters, offer enthusiasts opportunities to enjoy their cars and share in the fellowship of other owners/enthusiasts. We didn't mention everybody but please know, we appreciate all of you. Finally, the quality of cars this year has been spectacular. We can not remember a period of time when so many great cars have been presented. Happy Holidays! Paige, Linda and Dave
