Joyeux Noel! What did 911 get for Christmas!

I'm sitting in the dark waiting for the kids to come screaming into the living room.
Thought I would post this holiday question for you all. Show us some pix of the gifts for your other love!
My baby got an early gift of new shoes about a month ago.

Hope the season finds you all well!

The SC received a set of H4s and paint rings and a few other goodies too.
Bought most used from members on this board!
Waiting for my little guy to wake up as well.
Merry Christmas!

My 911 got nothing this year.It's just waiting for spring or at least the next nice, clean road, winter day to come out and play.

I did get a BMW flag to match the Porsche one for the garage.


EDIT: We were awake before our kids this morning.

My 911 got some parts to make it breath easier. SSi's and an M & K muffler. It will be a great Christmas for both of us.

Hi Doug & Julie,
I have a radio delete sticker you can have if you'd like. I bought two of them from a Pelican here a few months ago. They originally went on the IROC Porsches. I just thought they were cool. I have a radio! Let me know.

She took everything out of me this year for Christmas...

1) Exhaust from you... about a month ago
2) Top-end rebuild
3) MSD Ignition
4) Ceramic coated exhaust
5) Powder-coated many components from inside engine bay... pictures to come at later time
6) Engine goodies, rebuild heads by Competition Engineering, SC cam grind by WebCams, new ring set and honed cylinders also by Comp. Eng., reground rocker arm's and new shafts where needed.
7) Innovate AFR digital system
8) Engine seal
9) Engine sound pad from AppBiz
10) Fuel Filter
11) Rebuilt Fuel Distributor by Special-T-Auto.. the guy is an A-hole.


Thats about it. Hope to be running by 2/1/09

Merry Christmas Rarlyl8 and others.

Bryan

Actually, my 911 was my Christmas present! Stepped up to an '87 the first week of December. M&K muffler and pre-muffler to be installed next week.

This year has been rebuilding year for the Carrera, off the road and on jack stands. Very painful, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel though. Last year my trans finally died and I ended up rebuilding a euro 915/67. Factory cooler, factory LSD, billet bearing retainer and new close ratio Guard gear set. Factory first 11:35, second 17:35, third 21:31, fourth 24:27 and fifth 27:24. When the trans was finished and the 3.2 cleaned up and detailed ready to go back in, an opportunity to pick up a very low mile 96 Varioram motor came up. This has been my ultimate goal for the car so needless to say it was a very nice Christmas present for the Carrera. Along with the motor I picked up the brakes from the 993. I have my work cut out for me in the new year with lots of garage time putting the Carrera back together. I hope to have it back to life by spring to enjoy some track time.

I got a new left inside door handle for my 88 Carrera from my wife.
In the spirit of the season, I've been sending out the 917 ringtone I created (I've sent out about 90 so far).

A new set of hood struts, both front and rear. Also she got a new jack pad. Of course that goes well with the 1200 in brakes she got last month, and the new interior this summer.
