Wohoo! Coolest Christmas ever! I got a wrench set (which I needed badly) and a B&M Ratchet Hammer shifter for my car!!!! I also got my new AOD, so we're gonna be busy this week working on my drivetrain!

Nice, I've always wanted those ratchet wrenches. I shoulda thought of that when I wrote up my list. Ah well!

Yeah apparently my dad sneakily found out what I wanted. He asked what I was going to buy next for my car and got me that...

I should've said a 5.0L Cammer! LOL

Nice deal, brother got some wrenches, carpet for his car and a whole bunch of stuff. Sister got lowering springs for her GT. Dad got no car stuff at all and I didn't either. I got a nice 32" flat screen HTDV, 22" flat screen monitor for the comp, all kinds of clothes, calogne, and some other good stuff...

I get more excited about giving then getting the older I get.

Yeah. This year was just kinda "sure whatever you wanna get, I don't care"

Every other year it's been "I want this! Add this to my list!"

I didnt get any car stuff this year. pretty much gave everything I had to the kids, but I do have two weeks off to make a dent in the pile of parts I have in my shed.
I hope to at least have my new top put on by then.

man i made out huge this year for some reason!

$125 worth of sears cards, wrenches, buck knife and an ~18in wooden 64ish mustang (from the gf), lots of other stuff!

I got a lot of stuff for some reason, but like said above...what i REALLY like is watching everyone i love open their stuff and seeing them smile! its truly great!

Yeah, I was, then i decided that I wanted to be lazy and then I found another AOD for $150 from an 89 fox. (guess what he did with his...)

So I cheapened out. Oh well. I'll do it in a couple of years or so. I'll just spend the money on performance parts.

I want to port my head and intake...

















...maybe I'll use rock salt.

Isn't that the truth, at age 25 I realized that this year......

I started to realize that a few years ago, but I love getting people stuff they don't expect. This year it was lowering springs for the sisters 94 GT, carpet for the brothers 86 GT, and helped with some nice golf clubs for the dad. Then for the mom she tells us to spend no money on her, so I went ahead and made her some maple fudge... something she only ever got out in MI when we visited, and hasen't had in years.

Last year I surprised the sister with tint, the brother with a Flowmaster axle back, and other stuff for the family.

I just get more excited when people open my gifts than when I open others. Now using the new stuff is always fun, but getting someone something they really want is just better!
