My grown kids are asking what I want for Christmas. Since I have all the socks I need, I was thinking about something for the 3b. What reasonably priced items have you augmented your Willy's with?

Great question...we're really good at spending someone elses money.

Splurge and try a set of these....

Good suggestions.

Jeeper50, I'd have to make sure I was very clear about requesting a "bikini top", otherwise my kids might be quite worried.

OT, I emailed that link right off to my daughter- hopefully someone here won't snap them up before she can get to them.

After having seen the tragedy in CT this afternoon, I find it hard to ask for anything for myself. I pray for all the victims and their families. We are all so Blessed - God help the families that must endure all the ramifications of this tragedy. I offer my prayers for the innocent young ones who only had begun their lives.

Hmmm...

This came up just yesterday in my house. I laughed, then mentioned a few things that might make things a bit nicer for the 3B project.

Seat covers, replacement shift knobs (I have none), a running v8, a new engine stand.


Since my 7, 11, and 13 year olds have limited budgets, I said that I was good to go. Perhaps a hand drawn picture of the Willys when its finished.
when its finished.

I already have a drawing of my Willys, in several pieces on the floor. Aren't kids cute!

I know what ya mean mate! I would love somewhere dry and warm where I could casually put down my tools, to come back three days later and pick up where I left off.

Here’s mine, a ten buck Chinese made garden gazebo. :lol: Raining again! :rolleyes:
