OK what did Santa bring you?
OK Santa broke down and Sent me a four post lift for Xmas feeling sorry for me being 70 years old . Now I can fix my 55 Corvette oil leaks with out laying under it and may be clean up 37 years of dirt I put on it driving all over the country . The oils I've bought and installed over the years I could have bought one myself. So what did Santa bring you guys and don't make me to envious.

Roy that was nice of Santa to bring you that. If you see that fat guy, tell him to bring me a 4 post lift also. Well first off I got the bill for the family eating out for breakfast,(we do every year) Thanks Santa. Then we all came back to our house where I got 7 pair of NEW SOCKS from the 2 grandkids. That is what I asked for. Also got a gift card for Dairy Queen, I love there Blizzards
and for the grand present, I bought it myself because I know the wife would not buy it, a 1954 Corvette that Brett and I are going to go pick up Monday in NJ. The grandkids were excited that I liked my socks. Hell every time I would take a pair off at night I would have to throw one away because it had a quarter size hole in it. That is the only gift I wanted and I go it, I was almost out of socks. At our age if there is anything that the wife and I want we just buy it. The only thing is she wants a lot of junk. Oh well that is live. Merry Christmas to all and I hope Santa brought you what you asked for like he did me.

What a great gift to get Roy!
I've had my lift a little over a year.Makes a guy wonder why we wait so long to get something so useful.
In the past year too much to list.But coming up custom interior and trunk work for the 62 and new glass and body and paint for the wifes Z28.

I guess Santa forgot me. Maybe the Easter bunny will bring it. Shemp

Every year I get my corvette wardrobe replaced, t shirts, sweat shirts, and this year I got a new leather jacket to replace my old favorite for the last 12 years. Wife calls my C5 black leather a bum jacket. After that long it's just too comfortable and I never hesitate to crawl under whatever. Who can do that in a new jacket?
Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas everyone! I half expected my dad to write out "54 Corvette" in the snow on the driveway- so he could say "I have 54 Corvette in the driveway for you.".. but I guess he didn't think of it. hahaha I did get some very nice tools and a rolling cart for tools and parts for when he and I are working on cars together!

I gave my dad a ride on a B-25 from the air museum where he volunteers as a Docent, and I paid the mortgage for a sick friend of mine.
I got a power tool I asked for.

I'm with Mossy66, NO ONE IS THAT GOOD 64vert! NICE!! Congratulations!!
Santa did leave me a nice gift from 3 of my grandsons, one of those portable battery jumper packs. It's a PEAK Compact Battery Jump-Starter 300. I've seen these at different auto parts stores. Very compact and powerful. This one says it will give 300 instant starting amps (600 peak amps).
Was a happy camper this morning just having brunch with 6 of our 8 grandkids. What a great noise maker!
