    My wife (and kids) are all in on the Hot Rod and Bike stuff, so I guess I hit the lotto.

    I got a Black and Red leather jacket (to match my Flat Tracker).

    Dave Aldana skull cap (to go under my helmet)

    Finned Buick drums already milled out for my wide 5's

    RZ 350 Pro-Fab Aluminum swingarm for my flat tracker (WOW)

    RZ 350 rear disk set-up to match the Pro-Fab (Double-WOW)

    2- 19" Morris Magnesium mags 1-2.15 1-2.75

    Gotta love her,
    Kevin

    I have power of attorney to shop for myself so she doesn't have to associate with the sort of ne'er-do-wells that hang out at speed shops, parts houses, salvage yards and gun shops. My wife vicariously purchased a Milwaukee Hole Hawg (what a monster), a LNIB Hurst Comp+ 4spd shifter, a nice 390cfm Holley 4bbl, a slightly used 402BBC, a Ruger 44mag semi-auto carbine, and a S&W 629. Is this a thoughtful woman or what?

    Merry Christmas y'all, and here's hoping for a happy and prosperous New Year.
