Isn't that they way Christmas should be?It's maddening to see the emphasis put on about this gift and that gift.Christmas is all about family and celebrating the true meaning of the day.
Julie,hope is all well with Mom and Dad.Maybe you can make it East again in the near future.

Jeff,

Since meeting you and many others at Indy, my Christmas present has been in the works. Without the understanding and support of my wife I would not have my shop today. It is still being finalized but it will give me a place to build and store my car(s), truck and trailer.

PS, Many thanks to all of you who have offered ideas and thoughts as to what works best in a shop, I have been reading/listening.

Got to see my youngest daughter get home safe from college at ECU, and my oldest daughter and her husband fly in from Oklahoma. I have not seen them since the wedding in August. I got to spend time with my family at Moms (who is now wheelchair bound) and eat some "wicked" chicken stew and vegetable cornbread that Mom proudly made. Got to live another year, will be 51 in a month, and still have a job as a paramedic and will be eligible to retire with the state in 2.5 years. Life and God is good! Don Jackson

My Christmas present to myself on the 23rd was an enclosed trailer so I can put one of the race cars in there and have room in the garage to work on the other. This is just step one of many that it will take for me to get out racing again. Next is the custom hitch fabrication for my old Dodge motorhome which was quoted at 2,100 dollars, (not happy about that) Then two trees have to be removed and a 50' blacktop driveway paved so I have a place to park when I get home from a race late at night, and that's before I put a second or a penny into the car that has been sitting for 6 years which will have a new engine and class, hey, it's a start, Paul.

I got these cool billet wheelie bar wheels. That's my bling for the race car this Christmas.
Santa was real good to the kids this year. Somehow though, he screwed up and made a wrong delivery. Now we have a 7 week old Maltepoo puppy.
What I know so far is this. Three 8 year olds and one ten year old will flat wear a puppy out!

Well...found another 20 CFM or so on the cylinder heads in the last week !
So yes, at this point I do have the trickest set of front wheels made, a custom set of one off rear wheels and wheelie bar wheels that match the other four wheels and yes, all sitting in a pile in the corner!

First order of business is to fatten up Lucky 2 cause she is a little thin. Whudd yall get.

Jeff,

I woke up, and did not hear any soldiers died overnight so it was a good start. Just send that little engined old Challenger up here, we go slow and will take good care of it!
