Ok, So what kind of gifts did all you goons get?

I know everyones gonna be excited about the junk they got, so I figured I would make a thread. What did everyone get!?

I got speakers for my car and spider caps!

If you didn't get anything cool, just bite the bullet and tell your mother-in-law that you hate mixed nuts and ties (unless you like that sort of thing )

Spider Caps are Gnarley

Now that I've bought a house, I need stuff that I'm not even aware of yet. My parents helped fill that void with a Milwaukee 18V cordless tool set (hammer drill, sawzall, circular saw, work light, and job site radio). I need to find a project car to use that Sawzall on...

Meanwhile, there's a guy a few blocks away with a gennie Model A sedan in his garage. I can hear his knees knockin' from here!

 

lessee.....
SBC Oil pump,
cash for more parts,
valve covers,
and a bunch of crap that should have been car related but wasn't.

 

FWIW: There's another 6 page long post on this same topic:
