    I got an Air/Fuel ratio meter set up from my lovely wife. There may be an ulterior motive though, I've been having trouble getting a good tune up on her Corvair so she can confidently drive it. I mentioned a while back that I can't seem to tune my way out of a paper bag theses days, I may need to buy me an A/F set up......
    I also got a nice warm watch cap and gloves so I can drive my roadster without freezing my head and fingers.
    Spent Christmas with my wife, all 3 kids were home, my sis and her family and most of all my 88 y/o Mom, doesn't get any better.

    A Fitbit and a dozen pair of Socks I think my kids think I am old and fat and need to start walking and getting more exercise.
    I retire from work next Tuesday so Maybe I can walk around the block every day. My block is 1.2 miles 1 mile though. Actually I think I will get plenty of exercise in the next few months cleaning up the old shed and building my shop in it's place.
    I figured that my wife was just going out in the garage and find something I had bought for the shop or the truck in the past six months and gift wrap it and put it under the tree.

    I got a nice card from my wife, means more to me than anything else.
    We are just happy to have good health, good paying jobs and the ability to have world travel vacations.

    If you can keep it stock, that would be awesome. We are running out of original cars slowly.
    .
    Some nostalgic Fenton or Edmunds speed parts would be cool!

    Nice car BTW!

    brand new Hobart Handler 140 MIG welder, I'm not used to such luxury, given that I've been using a 70$ harbor freight rig for a year and a bit now

    When I married (for the third time) my wife said that she didn't want to do gifts for birthdays/anniversaries/Christmas, I thought I had died and went to heaven. My second wife was never happy with what she got and she was quick to counsel me on it:( I don't think there are many wives that see the common sense that goes along with this. It is SO nice not to wonder what to get and then in return get some stupid gift that you didn't want. At my age, 73, I have about everything I want, and if no, I buy it (within reason). Good luck selling this to your loved one:)

    Its been as good a Christmas/ year as I can ever remember. My children and wife are great. God restored Micky's and Bill"s health. We got a lot done this year with the Willys and the Prefect. Even got a new ( er) ramp truck to replace the head ache diesel that we had. Not really Hamb( 1990 GMC crew cab) material but it cranks and runs and stops every time / it even has air conditioning and it works! It has really been a good year. God has blessed me with much more than I deserve. Hoping and wishing a Merry Christmas /Happy New Year for everyone.
