Default What ya get for Christmas?

I've been bugging my wife for an Air Compressor for a while. I'd tell her I could do so many more things around the house and fix the cars faster, blah, blah blah... so she went out an got me this little thing from Lowes:

Kobalt®
26 Gallon Compressor With 6 Tools
Item #: 99007 Model: VLK1582609


Not professional grade but will do nicely for what I have to do.

Nice compressor, I'm still hoping to get one, I keep borrowing my dad's.

I got a 3/4" torque wrench from Harbor Freight to finish my TB/WP job, a new set of tie rods, and a ball joint rebuild kit from 928 Motorsports!

Santa didn't bring me a 'passed' inspection sticker though ! That was on top of my list.

I got two books on K-Jet injection and "Excellence was Expected", the three volume History of Porsche (in which a total of 2 chapters are dedicated to the Shark, but a cool book anyway).

I also got a gift card for tools from Sears, so I see a good torque wrench in my future...

I got a new Aston Martin!





Haven't really been able to use it much though as its way to fast for the house. It just does these crazy burnouts and you can't steer it. We've got snow and ice out on the street in front of the house, so I'm kinda bumming I haven't been able to take it through its paces. Oh well.

Keyless entry system with alarm to replace the factory alarm. I also got some cash so I'm thinking about wheels or shocks.
Non-Porsche was the Mother of All Remote Controls to run everything in the house from anywhere, even the lights.

I got myself a new hood emblem. My original one mysteriously disappeared while parking in the west end. Weird man.
