What is on your Christmas Present List?
I have been asked by several family members for a Christmas gift list. Having recently purchased my first Porsche (911 SC Targa), several have questioned the $$ of items I might want. My family members(siblings, in-laws, parents, and wife) usually spend $25-50 per gift. I'd like to upgrade to Turbo Tie Rod ends, but think that's a little pricey to put on the list. I've browsed through some catalogs and came up with a few ideas in this price range. I'd like to see some other suggestions, but this is a start:
Digital air pressure gauge New Hood Crest with gasket Porsche Baseball Cap Book - The 911 Story (Paul Frere) Leather Key Pouch Leather Handbrake Boot Leather Shift Boot ------------------ Mark |

How about 101 Projects for your Porsche 911! That is IF you haven't already ordered it, which in that case you deserve a big lump of coal.

If they all give you gift certs to Pelican then you can combine them for a big ticket item.

For Leland to come back safe...with victory in hand! That would be the best gift for all of us, right?

Since I'm buying a new house, I want my old house to sell for my Christmas present. So I don't have to make two house payments. Otherwise, I won't even be able to afford the $8 Porsche coffe mug for my wife!
BUt more importantly, for Leland and the rest of those Armed Service people to come home safe. ------------------ Matt Chamblin 78 911 SC |

Does anyone remember where to get one of those Fuchs wheel wall clocks? I always thought those were cool but can't remember where/who sold them, thanks.

Oh, a nice 3-layer driving suit, for starters. I figure it'll end up being my xmas gift to myself, cuz nobody else in their right mind will buy it for me ($$$).

Four years ago, I put the hood crest at the top of my list. My wife got it for me, and I had a great Christmas afternoon installing it. That's a good one for the list- inexpensive, but a lot of fun

A Porsche factory engine stand (after Leland's safe return, of course).

A large rolling tool chest. After all of the tools I've been buying to work on the P-car, I'm overflowing my toolbox.
