Let's see..... Road Rage Racer These are just plain funny. Check your local Walgreen's or Spencer gifts Ferrari: Road and Racing by Winston Goodfellow A universal oil filter wrench. Thanks dad.
New plug wires (bright red) my wife's a saint! I am so loaded up on Ferrari logo stuff that I had to politely put the kabash on it this year. Merry Christmas, Rjay
My best present besides curling up in front of the fire with the better half and some champagne: I got to drive my 308GT4 for an hour today. In Toronto on Christmas day that is just not normal. There should be snow and salt on the roads! Gerrit
Here are some of my gifts. A mechanics suit (Birdman calls it my Captain America suit.) A Snap-on breaker bar. A butterfly impact wrench(I used one at Verells and it's great to have) Thumb sockets, I think that's what they are called. A Craftsman tool box cabinet. Some other tools 4pc Pry bar set. (3 to keep home and one to keep in the car.) I also got some slippers but didn't bother posting a picture. Image Unavailable, Please Login
This year was easy for my family. Anything having to do with Ferrari or guns works for me. Ferrari sweatshirt Ferrari coffee mug Ferrarichat coffee mug Spotting scope (for spotting Ferrari and bullet hits) And the really big gift was the approval to get that big red car in the garage.
I got a nice silver parts tray from some outfit called Williams-Sonoma. Dang thing ain't magnetic but it's real purty and got a pouch for storing it. Seamus Image Unavailable, Please Login
Gerrit, We had that here in Colorado last year! It was awesome to drive - Tshirt weather This year we had two and a half feet of snow in 18 hours and shut down the airport just before Christmas. The next day, sunshine by noon. Heck, I couldn't even get out of the subdivision for a day. had a guy just leave his car in front of my house. He brought a 4 wheel drive in and got it stuck too. Finally, some guy with a 60's Kaiser with chains pulled him out. That thing was a beast! I have a snowblower which came in handy for the first time in several years. We got clobbered. -Rjay
Santa treated me pretty nice this year. I bought a new pickup truck and got a new compurter with MSN Flight Sim X. The pickup is a F150, and the computer was made by Fujitsu and has a 17 inch screen. Bob Wassam
Birdman, you had a chance to try out your gasless MIG yet? My brother is looking into getting one but is still unsure about them.
Ferrari t-shirt 2 Ferrari hats Ferrari jacket First x-mas with the Ferrari! Even the kids got Ferrari hats! Torque wrench Actually, the Ferrari and all the parts was part of my gifts, to myself! Merry Christmas everyone! Jeff
Daniel at Ricambi and Peter at Krause and England are my Santas this year - lots of little bits for my Mondial : 1)X-OST 2)Test pipes 3)Pedal set 4)Alumininum shift knob 5) Fire Ext 2.5lb 6)Struts for all bonnets This little blue Mondial is going sound even sweeter in 2007!!
I'm gonna run it with gas....not sure about the gasless thing. I got a regulator for it and I just have to figure out where to get a small bottle of argon. It came with some rosin-core wire so maybe I'll try it gasless for fun. I know very little about welding though, so I'll need lessons from Verell. I also have to wire up a 220 V outlet for it in the garage, but it's not that big a deal because I ran a 220 circuit out there for the lift. I'll report back! Birdman
Got the following from the Ferrari store in Italy care of my brother; * Challenge Stradale hat * Key chain / Leather with Ferrari logo
That's true, but don't tell anyone. ;-) Confucius say: It's better to have nice tools than to BE a tool. Birdman
Flux-core makes for messy welds (splatter). Use MIG (gas) mode for easier, cleaner welds. Read the directions because polarity is different between gas and gasless. Community colleges have non-credit, community classes that are very cheap. I'd recommend checking them out for welding and other classes.
