What can I say, I live in Alaska and love the outdoors. Plus I've been trying to hang one of these critters on my wall for a few years now (and by that I mean trap/skin/mount). I guess my wife thought that a picture is the next best thing........ trapping season isn't over just yet though!

 

My father in law got me something to hang my keys on:



Got a creeper, shop light, shop towels, auto gloves. I also got a new rolling stool for the shop. I've been using an old office chair that I'd hacked the back off of. I guess I can get rid of that now.

 

I got the same Built Ford Tough sign last year for Xmas. Nothing really truck related this year. Oh well, it was a good day, all the family had a good time and my house is a wreck.....LOL

I got a medium blue T shirt with
Ford in big letters on it's front.
Some socks, Silverware (chrome),
And Friends and family to eat the
Christmas dinner I spent two days
preparing.

And the Ex wife's old man sent her
packing for smoking cig's. She is pretty
broke up about it. But the boys and I
still got a laugh or two out of her.

Here's what my boys got.

Couldn't get the picture to rotate and save!


It almost hurt ME when I drilled the hole in that original hub cap........... but I think it was worth it. The boys love it!

 

I just went and spent some of my X-mas money for this gauge cluster... Need to find a new speedo for it and another gauge light bulb. Might have to look for a couple more of these gauge clusters...

 

Really good book! Don't discount the information about hammers and dollys in the back.

 

My 20 year old son made us this and left it at our house today when we were in town. He sort of checked out for Christmas with some issues about 'materialism stuff', but today when we got home was an amazing note thanking us for his gifts, and mentioning to my wife of 2 years how glad he is to have her be a part of the family. It is her birthday today and she almost cried. I did..... just a bit and only for a second.....

 

I got spring stuff for Christmas. Mid fifty had free shipping so I ordered real quick and told my wife she got my presents.
Hinge tool. So now I have my hood hinges the correct tension
Hood latch spring, clutch return spring, brake return spring. My brake spring was fine but after my clutch spring broke on me I figured I had better be safe.
I got the hood hinge bolts as well. My hood is closing better now.

 

Went to TSC today and bought myself one of the bonus built blankets. clearance priced. Got it for $10 .

 

Cool gift! Sounds like you and your son are reconnecting, that could be the best xmas gift of all!

 

Thanks Ax, I noticed him going through the scrap metal under the chop saw last week. He's a really good kid and I've missed him since he moved to the mainland last year. Last of four........

 

Not really truck loot but....

I got some socks and underwear plus a really sweet Schwinn bike

Classic Deluxe 7 | Schwinn Bicycles

I got a new window for the side of my garage as well to replace the single pane window. Its privacy glass and robust as hell so it will keep the honest folks honest.

I bought myself a ton of mustang parts for the other project im working on

I am going to use some Christmas cash to buy some more fab tools and steel for the IFS swap

 

Received an engine hoist, a NICE Edelbrock manifold for my 302 and a ATSG for the C6 I will TRY to rebuild myself! Happy New Year everyone!
