I'm not needing anything for the two 'vettes I have now, however I'm thinking of a third 'vette as a Christmas gift to myself. A nice '69 one owner L71 coupe. A pair is nice, but three of a kind is even better!

I wish (with Santa as well as God - we need all the help we can get) we as a nation have the fortitude and the resolve to get past the economic crisis we face ahead so we can continue to enjoy our hobbies instead of fearing for our own as well as our families well being. Let the hope and joy of the Christmas season bring us heath and happiness. That's the only gift from Santa I really wish for.

I've asked for all the back up light switch and all hardware to get it installed and actually have working back up lights for a change.

New brake calipers and rotors to go with my new Street/Slalom suspension and T-Arms. Then I'm going to be ready to hit the road and drive to some car shows and races; a road trip is long over-due.

Fixed oil leak from the rear of my intake
