My wife got me the Snap-on 50th Anniversary Corvette toolbox - the small one:

Resized Image

She also got me three Franklin Mint Corvette models - a 50th 'vert, a 50th coupe, and a 1953.

My nephews got me a chocolate 1975 coupe which won't last very long.

My new brother in law got me The Corvette Factories: Building America's Sports Car - looks like a really cool book.



Happy holidays to all!

Mine was all self bought. My wife will buy what she wants, and I will buy mine. I got new bushings for the front, Banski suspension and an a/c compressor. Just a few projects while winter is on.

J3studio, that is a sweet tool box. Wow!. My wife got me a very nice fitted car cover for mine. That's about it for the vette. Last year she got me a t-shirt and a "Corvette only" parking sign for my garage. To help her out I got her a catalog from Corvette Central, moving her into the right direction. I showed her your tool box and made sure she knew that that would be a great gift for next year.

Ugh... toolbox... I need a new one... sniff...

That is one sweet toolbox, John!!! It's obvious the Mrs cares. Sounds like you flat out SCORED today!

We are in FL with family, we don't do much gift exchange anymore, so it will be between bastet, her mom and me on New Years.

I have a couple of small Corvette things I am gonna order...

That is one kickass toolbox, indeed!! I got a nice C4 fleece pullover, but it doesn't hold much in the way of tools ;-)

Wow, John, that's a beautiful toolbox! Almost too nice to actually put tools in!!!

I got a car cover from the in-laws. I still haven't exchanged gifts with the wife yet, but I'm expecting some corvette swag.

Looks like you we get to share games now! What PS3 games did you get? Nice haul Matt. Aaron might go crazy if he knows you got that Star Wars Lego set.

We had a very nice Christmas with 2 out of 3 kids home for the holiday. Corvette related I got a set of the goodridge SS brake hoses, a polyurethane bushing set for the trailing arms, new trim panels for around the radio and shifter console cover, and a matchbox sized C6. We all went to see Avatar last night and enjoyed it as well.

I didn't really get any Corvette stuff for Christmas, but I did get my drivers seat back from the upholsterer on Christmas Eve. He was at the shop until 3PM and said to come by and get it. Nice present as I was not expecting it until next year.

Picked up one of these... which is great because my rolling toolbox is overflowing and I end up doing most of the wrenching in the driveway anyways.

Very nice! We are considering a 200 swap in the 79 since it's a lot less work. You need to make a thread for this!
