Has everyone gotten their wife's Mustang parts under the tree yet

You know she will be disappointed if she doesn't get her much needed car parts!  Hope everyone took care of that.


Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.

Package came today from CJ Pony today. I'm pretty sure it's not jewelry or perfume.

Why is it that a person can't possibly have too much jewelry butt...."you don't need any more tools or guns and that Mustang is just fine, leave it alone."

After a trip to Grand Junction to pick out a new ring she's been looking at, I made out my list and I put some new sights for the Kimber, a sight adjusting tool and some Dillon stuff...plus I slipped a Springfield 1911 9mm in just to check the reaction.  "You don't need any more guns.  You can't shoot all the ones you have."

But to be fair, when I get around to ordering it for myself I won't get any pushback...never do.  I'm one lucky guy.  Have been for nearly 50 years.

Re: Has everyone gotten their wife's Mustang parts under the tree yet

Not so much for my wife.  But I did buy my son for his 68 Mustang a Fuel Tank, 351 Stealth intake Manifold, Chrome Support Brace and a oil pan.  Not much room under the tree after all of that...LOL

I only get push back if I over spend. She doesn't mind me buying car/fishing/shooting stuff as long as it doesn't come out of the grocery budget. It's been like that for 48 years. I too am blessed.

Speaking of Grand Junction and Christmas, I ordered a new (used) guitar off of e-bay for Brenda (myself), It shipped out of Grand Junction, CO.
Merry Christmas all, I gotta make a better effort to get back on here.

Re: Has everyone gotten their wife's Mustang parts under the tree yet

Yes you do Walt, butt it's really good to see that you are at least lurking.  Hope things are going well and that you and Brenda have a wonderful Christmas.  We will be in touch after the the first of the year...there's a very good chance that Jean and I will be passing through your area in late Aug or early Sept.
