Default Great Christmas Presents

I just wanted to start a thread for members to show off thier favorite Christmas presents this season.

I'll start with mine. I think it shows that my wife knows where my heart lies.

She loves me, but not enough to paint the wall for me!

She had prints made of those neat U.S. Patent drawings that a member posted and I downloaded.

My little xFire Shrine!

Max that looks fantastic. I love the banner , and the drawings look great. Nice job. I've been procrastinating on my garage. I too have the banner as you may know, and have an autographed 9 piece art work below by Stoddard, the creator. It's about 36" x 36". I've been waiting on doing the garage floor. Hopefully next summer.

FP,

I saw that before, and am very covetous! I have, of course, you to thank for the banner.

I was hoping you would see this thread and offer your opinion. It is valued in this house.

I'm hoping to "fill in the blanks" on the wall with some photos of Tina and myself in action (driving or posing with the xFire!) , as it were.

Thanks, Max

Looks great Max. Do you park your xfire in your bedroom or something? That wall is way too clean to be a wall in the garage.

I think pictures of you and Tina would complete the wall. It's always nice to have pics of the owners in action.

It's the way homes are built in the south. Very small, very nice garages.

And I think she bribed me with an early opening so I wouldn't complain too much helping her decorate today.

Boy, I really hate that!

Damm! all I have on the wall behind my Crossfire is an aluminium ladder and an old usless Tobaggan.

I guess I'm just a heathen.

Looks good Max.
My walls aren't even finished. Still open studs to the outside. I need to build an addition for two more vehicles anyway, Michelle wants a mustang roadster for herself. I guess I should make that one fancy.

Franc, I wouldn't call that tobaggen useless yet, winter is just getting started...get you a couple of XF emblems, mount them on the ole' tobaggen and away you go...the return trip is murder, though...nice garage Max, that is on my agenda next summer, still giving away "Vette" stuff, it's all but gone and spoken for...now stocking up on metric tools, never thought I would say that...and XF stuff...Merry Xmas....early...

You are lucky...

I end up getting belt/wallet/socks and something she thinks I love...

Last year she had custom Crosssfire Floormats made for my car.
With nickname she calls me. I had to put them in not to hurt her feelings. Real embarrassing when picking up friends..

It was the thought that counted, she was close with the Crossfire stuff, just not the pet names on them,lol.
