You fared better than me. I got a new center arm rest and my 3 year old got a t-shirt reading that he will own a corvette one day.

I got a new center arm rest as well along with some nice floor mats with the corvette script and hood emblem embroidered on them. The best was getting to drive otfl the car on such a fine, sunny, 75 degree day. Ya gotta love the south for some things.

 

[speedbird1229]

I got those:

1) New headlight switch (fixed A LOT - headlights now going up automatically when lights turned on, dimming works and turning cockpit dome lights on manually also works now)
2) New speedo/tach circuit
3) New speedo/tach lens

All parts installed already and I love them!

Not fair. I want to drive my Vette so badly. I miss it.

 

[korvettekarl]

I got a Chocolate Lab puppy and a Miller 200 Synchrowave TIG welder!

They might get a little stretched fitting them across the body of your vette otfl

I should have driven it today. it was nice and sunny out. instead I ripped the seats out to get ready for the new covers

 

[petes74ttop]

I did OK.
Got slippers,
Got a 10 drawer top & bottom red tool box,
and an electric polisher with a foam pad and some 3M Finesse-it polish.
Never used an electric polisher before so I may test it out on her car first!
Any hints on not ruining the Vettes finish would help.
PG.

 

[Curby]

I got a sweater and a dress shirt.

The wifey doesn't know, but Santa brought me a flannel car cover for Raquel! (Raquel is the 73 Coupe - she is in the paint shop getting a new Torch Red paint job).

Slow speed. Meguiars has some really good products for buffing, glazing, etc. Be sure to use the right pad with the product. I would also suggest using butter wax to seal it. 3 coats of butter wax is good, but I personally like about 7 for a premo show quality finish.

Use them for wheel covers.

I got a one piece speedo cable. I'm gettin rid of the cruise.

Thanks for the tips. Went to the paint supply today and got some Meguiar's Medallion wax, now I just need some nice weather and some time off to try it out. PG.

I got 4 new Pioneer speakers and a set of Bilstein HD's. Starting on the speakers tomorrow(Sat.) and hopefully the Bilsteins will be here for next weekend.
December 1st I had new BFGoodrich Radial T/A's put on which really made a difference in the ride and I'm hoping the Bilsteins will enhance that.v
Christmas(Wife) was very good to me this year.

 

[Art Jett]

I didn't get anything for the car but I did get a coupon to go to Tx. Motor Speedway (Nascar track) and I get to ride in a new Z0-6 for 5 laps with a pro driver and then they hand me the keys for 10 laps.

Santa had to bring a wii for the youngest so no fun stuff this year. I did buy some nice new valve covers before the holidays. The good news is that I think there aren't any more parts to buy. Famous last words right?
