My daughter went to Australia on her recent honeymoon and brought back a cool art print of a 40s Australian gas station scene for me. Got 3 gas station related shirts from 2 different people. I think they have me figured out. Also got some nice tools, clothes and books.
I shipped out a bunch of copies of the new gas pump restoration book to buyers with feminine names. Either we have a welcome influx of women into the hobby or some husbands and boyfriends are getting those for Christmas. Merry Christmas!

Nothing gas related,
but seeing my pump, front center cover on the new resto book was enough.

I had to buy my best gift, but my ol'buddy Dwaine turned me on to a National "Simplex-60" that I can't wait to get my hands on to do the restoring on. Elden
