    Pete-How do keep the embarassing orange stains off the clothes, sheets and body parts? :D

    Bill-I tried the vacum cleaner deal a couple of years ago. Woke up it traction. In retrospect I was glad I did not go with the cannister style with extralong hose. :eek:

    This year I may have topped them all! Just what she was looking for.
    35/36 Ford pickup. It might need a little tinkering but it should be a blast to drive ... um...for now she can sit on a milk crate and make engine noises (its what I do)

    I got her a digital picture frame key chain, this thing is really cool. It holds up to 99 digital pictures, has a clock and calender. Only $29 bucks. About a 1.5" frame.

    Oh dang, forgot about her. Guess I have some shopping to do. I did find some nice original '29 roadster cowl posts that I've been looking for forever, though . . .

    Christmas has come early for her. SO far she has received a APHA Paint Filly. A Harley Deluxe. A set of bags for the HD deluxe, A new set of boots riding the bike and the horse. A nice ring she eyed at a Pamona Car show.
    SO she has been hooked up very well.
    All she really wanted she says was a hot plate to fix me flapjacks...can't deny her that. The girl can cook!
    She will have a few gifts under the tree ...wine glasses (that I always break ) and a pizza cutter that I also broke.
    She is also spoiled.

    and UPS said they couldn't deliver "a boot in the**** and a poke in the eye"

    It was easy this year, she led me through the mall to a store and picked up a couple of things and set them on the counter and told the clerk "He'll pay for them now". Shopping done just like that. Don't even ask what I bought her though. I think it was a tennis bracelet and some kind of jacket.
    But I don't think I'll be getting the Milwakee cordless sawzall from Costco that I had my eye on.

    She gets whatever she puts on her Christmas wish list. It's always reasonable stuff and she always gets it.

    Mine said" Don't get me anything and I won"t get you anything" I know this is gonna backfire on me! I'm sure one of her friends will ask her what i got her, she will say nothing I will be the bad guy. Oh well!

    Yep..don't fall for that*****. Mine said the same thing.
    If in fact she doesn't get you anything...You can use this in the future. IF you know what I mean. :wink:
    I am already reaping the benifits.

    Wife wanted a Roadster so I did what any good husband would do....I found a roadster project. Solid 29 Roadster that was a 50's custom with a lot of nice lead work.

    Just got it done this afternoon. I think Chad did a great job on it, and I think she'll love the extra attention to detail on a gift she's been wanting for well over a year! Here it is:
