I got as follows
- A new Car Cover
- A Magnetic bowl for holding my tools and sockets whilst working on my car
- A huge 11 X 8 print of me with my car! (looks professional!)
- a New phone!!!!!
- 1st season of Scrubs!
- signed pants cutting scissors as a joke gift (I'm an EMT)

everyone post your gifts that you received or gave from your respective holidays! doesn't have to be 7 related....

Got a new intake manifold gasket set (again) today to re-do my work on the engine. Painted up my interior console pieces. And, ordered a true short-shifter from Trochoid. Otherwise, just another day for me.

I slid out in the rain and tore my front bumper off and f#cked up my front quarter panels.

Well at least now I can make my front bumper fit flush... :WallBash:

Merry X-Mas to me?

I got a camera...of course it didn't get here by Christmas so that I could get photos of the kids and all the presents you guys helped me get them...by the way...thank you for the camera (when it gets here!) My sister gave me some dishes, some wine glasses, and 2 bottles of wine to go in them...LOL That about concludes what I got for Christmas...I must have been a bad girl...The kids got a telescope, (still not here), a recurve bow, (still not here), some dvds, PS2 games, camo clothes, toys, stuff...they had a nice Christmas and I can't wait until the rest get here. The weather has been nasty lately and now it's perfect for star gazing! Thank you again!!

About a week before X-mas I bought a FC, don't worry I haven't gone to the dark side, just got it to mess around with
For X-mas I got some gift cards, some money towards the aformentioned FC, a nice work light, a flashlight, and some other assorted nick-nacks...
Was a good holiday all around!

the tender blue color code is V3. in addition to my ocean blue 85 GS, color code L6, i have a tender blue FB as seen here. these are some older pics of the car:





if you ever decide to get rid of the car let me know, as i'd be interested in buying it from you based on its color.

i figured that and thats ok. i just wanted to throw that out there. i like what you've done with the car thus far. i think when i finish reparing my L6 FB, i'm going to drop in a 13B from an SE. i pulled the engine from the car and am using it in my tender blue 85 S. here's what ive got:

definatly not as pretty as your car but a work in progress none the less.

the only thing i have done is the engine swap and the headlights i got for christmas. i dont sell cars anymore so i dont have that much money. i need to get the S4 rebuilt and street ported either while im at boot camp or when i come back. but that needs to be done then im going to start doing the really fun stuff like suspension exhaust shifter new transmission roll cage wide body tires. all the fun stuff i guess.
