...what would you ask him for?
What's on your grease-stained Christmas list?
For me: definitely a tool chest. I have a feeling I may be getting one, too...
Trying to think of some cool car stuff for my stepdad in L.A., he's quite the gearhead.
What's on YOUR list, to give and receive?

Good ideas, guys. Damn, you know a garage (or use OF a garage) should top my list. That, and a paintjob.
If loot were no prob for buying gifts, I'd get a purple car coat for Purple, have the back of it say, "Kustom Kamikaze" overhead a row of his Graffiti-era Datsuns.
And a garage. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

<font color="purple"> I'd have to get you more sand paper and primer. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif At this point I want a permanent full time job so I can have car money. And a new girlfriend since I'm single again. (Tim, that is a hint, did you pass my email to her? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif) </font>

I want a Chrome shop with experienced Elves plateing all my stuff. I'll do stuff for you guys too, just send some food and TP for the elves. Oh wait, that wont work, I thought elves just ate Mrs. Santa Clause. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif

18" milktruck wheels for my model A would be a nice suprise under the tree.
I'd give all my fellow HAMBers good health,cuz we all know some of our HAMB family has had a tough year........Shiny

If Santa were a Hamber, I can tell ya this,
We would all get our wishes, not a one of us would he miss.
There'd be no coal in our stocking, of this you can be sure,
There'd be a new mig welder sitting on the floor.

And over by the fireplace standing proud and tall,
There would be a brand new torch set there to please us all.
Hand tools scattered all about the place,
Enough to put a smile on any Hamber's face.

For those lucky enough to have a heated shop,
He'd leave a fridge full of beer and that would be hard to top.
And for those less fortunate, this is what you'd see,
Insulated coveralls and gloves under the Christmas tree.

Santa may be a Hamber, who are we to say,
We'll just have to see what happens to us on Christmas day.
So be good girls and boys because ya never know,
If the real Hamber Santa might be the one to show.

Happy Holidays......... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Purple, I emailed her your email address.
Can you imagine being able to sneak up on St. Nick's sleigh and pinstripe it, before I returns to it? Should leave a plate of cookies and milk for that Phantom Helper... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif The rain's kept him/her away.

Nice prose, Cadlights! Am working on one, too, either for this post or another...

Cadlights, thats very cool indeed.

All I asked Santa for, the ONLY thing I've been asking Santa for, for the last 3 years, is a digital camera.
I swear I've been a good girl. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif Only two more weeks left to see if Santa thinks I've actually been good enough. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I'd ask him to find a 75-78 Nova with a 250 six automatic and park it in my driveway...

...that'd give me damn near everything I need to get the old Chevy on the road!!

(Donor cars RULE!! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif)

Of course...I could always splurge with Christmas money and buy a $100 rustbucket Nova of my own! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Dearist Santa,
I have been a really good boy this year. I have tried to help all of my car-crazy friends when they're in need. So if you could find it in your heart to put a greasy old Olds Rocket motor and tranny under my tree for my RPU project it would make me the happiest fat kid on the block. And if you can't fit one of those down the chimney, you could always just leave it in the driveway. I'll be sure to lay down a drop cloth for you on Christmas Eve.

Love always
The Fat Kid

nothing too much, just a good sized shop and my torch set back from my uncle. but i've been a bad, bad boy. maybe i'd just settle for a little "peace on earth, good will towards men"?

Yeah, peace on earth and good will towards man.. Nah, not really. Just need a door for my 27 roadster, and maybe a set of limefire headers. And a bigger cam for the Hemi. Yeah, a bigger cam and new valve set up. Oh, and the forged pistons as well! Hopefully santa is not just a hamber, but a horsepower head as well. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Umm.... Santa.

I want a good job, a big garage, and my car on the road. Is that too much to ask, fat man?
