I didn't send that one.

 

My box is ready to go and packed, but we just went on vacation and got back tonight.

 

Tomorrow is girl scouts.

Wednesday is decorate the box night. 

 

It will go out Thursday!  Then I can open my box that has been patiently waiting for over a week!

I'm glad you enjoyed it, the shirts are designed by and printed by hand by Saxyhero , I provide the sarcasm and it's part of her product line we sell at craft fairs and the like. She does other ones but I wasn't sure on your thought about whiskey and how much you liked people lol.

 

The CD is my old band from quite a few years ago, it even starts with a car revving up so it's obviously very car oriented( not really)

The guitar string will be worth millions someday when I'm a Super Famous Guitar Player, so hold on to it lol

 

The radar detector is a regift ( I try to put at least something from the previous box in each time) so I can't take too much credit there, as is the Caddy manual.

And here is my awesome box from I'm guessing....dan0?

 

First up we have some tools, which will come in great handy because I apparently use a tool once and chuck it off into the woods never to see it again. A terrible habit, and my woods are a bit rusty, but now I have tools I won't lose!

Nest up is a wiring snarl from what I'm guessing is a Toureg??

 

 

A bunch of lug nuts! Since I broke and lost so many on the Rampage tour these will be great to have around, a long with some other cool stuff!

I don't own a Miata yet but I guess this means I'll have to get one right? I'll try to buy from a Canadian so i can use my Canadian Pennies Seed Money too!

Ungovernable sticker is probably my favorite and the MR2 badge could come in real handy for my project

 

More awesome stickers!

 

And finally, I apparently now own a Toureg lol

 

Thank you for this box of awesome stuff!

I'm glad your family has adopted the "person of snow" into their collection. It is made of real Idaho wood from the 'hero land.

Indianapolis is terrible for routing. I had something stuck there for about two weeks. One small envelope I ordered and it took about a month to arrive.

Loot!

as is customary. Good, good. Also came with instructions:

and absolutely no space was wasted. 

we've got literature, snacks, tools, clothing, stickers, badges, plates, offerings to the gods of speed. Basically everything. 

and I really hope this tach works

an excellent NYG box. Thanks, NC!

Do we need to stop relying on USPS and start delivering these with GRM Express?

I got my box. I have one of the most dreadful head colds I've had in a while, so I opened it on my bed, the cat was all over me, and I'm probably going to miss something.

 

The legacy box I got from Michigan dates back to 2024. 
It included: two hats which are too small for my giant head, which is a shame, because I really like them. Instead, my daughter will love them. A rotary tool, two clutch alignment tools, a 3d printed screw/nut combo, one of the little toys you try to catch a ball in, assorted Hot Wheels, a small air filter, specimen vials, lab grade copper and iron, a magnetic key box, sockets (three SAE, one 10mm), eight spark plugs, GRM stickers (which I needed, thanks!), MAX CONTROL!!! Stickers, hook and loop fastener tape, CAT5 cables, wire and crimping pliers, a Porsche calendar, two cutoff wheels, a Rock Auto magnet, pencils, the Classic Motorsport Glovebox companion, an extra mile, a multi-meter, and Ah-ooo-di key chain, and four (4) beer bottle caps. Oh, and a few two cent stamps.

Whew. Thank you very much for the well done box, GHO!

The box I sent landed two days ago. Usually they are delayed. Who knows? Maybe weather?

In reply to barefootcyborg5000 :

This was the second time I got you. Most of it is pretty obvious, but a few details:

The tach is from an old boat that went to the dump, as it was too much of a project.

The small piece of asphalt is from what's left of the Raleigh Speedway. I took my minion out to the woods to collect a piece and take photographs- which he still hasn't sent me, I should remind him. 

I think the cookies are good- the ginger ones have a bit of bite and the lemon ones taste like lemon, so that works out as it should.

The piston is from a Subaru engine that decided it was absolutely done and bounced a rod end cap around the block. The head gasket (also included) was not the failure point. Maybe take the head gasket and rub it for good luck whenever you're working in the garage? I don't know.

The axe head might clean up well enough to use. It's either the one I found in the woods or a different one. I can't remember.

There are also several re-gifts. I was going to hold onto the 5.0 HO badge and do something with it, but I never got around to it, so it's yours now. The small ratchet and socket set came my way a while back.

The gasket that didn't fail. Awesome. I was gonna ask what had happened to that rod; it had obviously gone out in spectacular fashion. The tiny animals and cars were a big hit with the kids. Gonna hopefully use that tach in the s10. Either it works or I just guess where redline is... Thanks!

Showed up Monday but didn't have time to mess with it.  A legacy box!  Guess I'm set for next year.

Grand Meowf Tarkin had to supervise, lest I open it the wrong side up.  Thanks for the help.

An interesting mix, the White Pony gift confused me at first, but it's mirror pieces and some white powder.  Sometimes it takes me a minute.

I have to admit the light-up light saber chop sticks are pretty cool!  And the decals are appreciated as always.  The Borla made me laugh because I just talked myself out of a $1900 Borla exhaust for the GR Corolla.  The keychain may end up with her, flashlights always a good thing.  That weird spinny thing with the fins might end up on a new GONK droid build.

(And my package included two bags of lug nuts so I have more for next year.)
