Default So What's Santa Gonna Bring You?

Let's hear your wish list for Christmas. :)

Me personally, hopefully Santa will bring me a Comp Cams 294S Solid Lifter cam kit (cam, lifters, springs, timing chain, etc....). :yesnod:

well my parents seem to think Im to scrawny so they have asked santa to bring me free weights. :lol: :lol: :lol: I personally don't think 5'10" 155lbs is scrawny...but apparently it is. :rolleyes:

As for my parents, I hope they get me some new bushings along with some cash to have the old ones pressed out by a machine shop. :jester

And typically my relatives give me cash, so I should have enough to get my rear wheel bearings done. :D

Should be a nice christmas. I also hope to get a new drafting table so I can get started on that dam* portfolio for college, I have to take it to them and have a meeting with them sometime in mid feb, and I still need to get 7 "complete construction documents" done. :eek:

Santa is bringing me a Corvette jacket, new Stingray side emblems, luggage rack, rear corvette emblem, and a bunch of Craftsmen tools that I need to add to my large tool chest he brought me last year :D I really like Santa :yesnod: I'm sure theres more but I think he wants to surprise me.

So What's Santa Gonna Bring You?
Most likely a stocking full of coal for neglecting my 'Vette for so long... Santa can't do much for me. It's all on me to get the custom interior fabricated and the fuel injection installed in time for a paint job next spring.
It would be nice if Santa brought me a 6-link rear suspension setup and a set of shiny new wheels all around, though....

I asked Santa (OK Mrs. Santa!!) for an original A.I.R. set-up for my '72 LS5. When I mentioned that it would cost somewhere in the neighborhood of $1K, she said........Well, I better not write what she said!!!!!

Gotta work on that "Holiday Spirit" this week!!! :D

The stuff started arriving on Friday. New carpet,seat backs,spinners,chrome stuff, ect. Probably about $900.00 worth of neat stuff. I ordered it all and now my better half is hiding it so she can wrap it up for me for Christmas "surprises". Thats OK 'cause she lets me play with the 'Vette anytime. Gotta love her and her attitude !! She has put up with me for over 30 years. A happy and wonderful Holiday Season to all on the Forum. Thanks to all for the help and advice from a new C3 owner. Sincerley, Dave. :) :)

Since Santa brought me my '81 last year (Well actually in February but I forgave him) I can't be too greedy this year. What I REALLY want, and I'm sure my wife has been looking, is a 1/18th scale model of an '81. I've been looking for months now and nobody has one!!
Please Santa Please!!! :cry

MERRY CHRISTMAS/HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL!!!

Seat covers and foam for my 68 roadster. Who couldve thought that foam itself could be so darned expensive...........Check you catalogs. No one sells them things cheap. Should buy Santa a bunch of feed for his reindeer.....

I asked Santa for some "free time". Hopefully I've been good.

Santa got me a new MIG welder. I always wanted one but could never justify the expense. Then, this last Saturday, I ran across one that Lowe's was clearancing for about $100 off their regular price (which was already pretty good). I grabbed the last one, and a guy who got there just after me was going to buy it if I didn't.

Even though I paid for it (with Christmas money from my dad), I know that Santa was the one that put it there for me to see. :D
