The gal bought me a set of Ford truck coffee mugs and a new coffee maker, but then surprised me with a nice new desk top computer for my office/ play room (SWEET!!). The bump got a new air fuel ratio monitor, and I ordered a new set of 33x12.50x16.5 BF Goodrich All Terrains to put on the slot mags. The mags are getting a treatment from my brother who makes his living polishing aluminum on airplanes, so they should turn out pretty nice. :pray:

My bump got a New MSD distributer, MSD plug wires and a MSD ignition coil. Then on Christmas day I removed the battery and covered it up for the winter months.
I got a Snap-on large power bar for the work bench with 12 outlets. Mounted on Christmas day as well. Plus some other things such as new road bike shoes and pedals.......

My wife bought my bump a new heater valve. Perfect, I've been freezing on the way to work. She also bought a set a tail lights for a dent. I didn't have the heart to tell her. I'm sure I can trade them for something.

An excellent piece of cookware; you'll never regret splurging on Le Creuset!

My bump got trailer wiring installed (by me...in the parking lot...on the cold ground, and I still haven't found a decent spot to affix the ground wire near the rear end of the truck.... :cry: ).

Got a new bump for Christmas! which is gonna put my Cummins project on hold. Its a crew cab 68' 4x4 SWB, it needs a little body work , but I got it running today, will post pics soon. I found it on Craigslist on accident, it wasnt in my usual searches. The best was the price...unbelieveable! Cant wait to get started on it.

Sort of got what I asked for. I was asking for a 60" Hi Lift jack and some jack stands. My 71 stands pretty tall on 35" tires and I need a tall jack. I also need a good floor jack for my shop, but I thought that was a bit too expensive to ask for from Santa. I got a floor jack and a good quality set of jack stands but the jack is a low profile and the stands are smaller than I need to suspend the truck. I love my wife to pieces but I think I am going to get my own tools from now on. Oh well, now that Christmas is over, I can start getting the parts I need to finish the interior and do some of the other things on my list.
Hope all of you had a good Christmas.

Santa bought the bump some new urethane I-beam and radius rod bushing, plus a new set of king pins. I'm also collecting parts for a rear brake job next spring.

Little things like that Instrument cluster lens sure make a huge difference! I'm enjoying that almost as much as my new ignition!

I became a victim of internet fraud, (credit card fraud) for Christmas for a pretty large amount. Don't ever think that you can walk away from your bank account for even one day without it happening, (off line for the past four days for me). Some clown in N.J. should have the FBI knocking on his door tomorrow afternoon as I've got a good head start on who and where he is. :thup:
1) Complaint with bank complete.
2) Formal complaint filed with IC3.
3) Thief's email / phone / and physical address from the company the item was purchased at.
4) Formal complaint filed tomorrow first thing in the AM with my bank.
5) Formal complaint filed with local police department right after the bank.

Was pretty much stretched thin this Christmas anyway-really didn't need this. I guess the guy thinks what he stole from me is worth hard time though. :hmm:
I won't let up until I know this guys behind bars. :thup:
