Also got a calender with early performance cars, Auburns, Cords etc. And last but not least, my favorite car related gift...some time off from the cars!!!

New Makita angle grinder and hammer drill...so ****in' stocked!

 

My wife of 22 years doesn't understand my bikes or the truck. So she gave me money and said she accepts that the bike or truck will never be really "finished"

Of course gettig the official "go ahead" changes everything. I might even buy a cpl of new parts vs used.

I got the following:
8" DeWalt Bench Grinder from my daughter.
Craftsman roll-around shop stool.
3-piece set of 1/2" drive extensions.

Amazon.com wishlists work well for those members of your family who are mechanically challenged and don't have a clue what is a bench grinder. That's not my daughter. But, if its automotive/tool related and it's available on Amazon, set up a wish list and let your family know about it.

 

A new floor jack.
