What did Santa bring you? Well, Santa came in a FedEx truck earlier today and delivered my set of Drilled and slotted rotors from BrakeMotive for my 97 Z28 Project.
Heres a quick pic.
In a couple of days my 275/40R17 Nitto NT555 Extreme Performance should arrive that will go on OEM SS Wheels.
Currently in the works of installing the BMR handling package. Cant wait to finish her up and take it for a spin!
Heres a pic of the strut/spring mocked up. I wire brushed and sprayed the upper control arm with rustoleum paint. Gave it a nice flat black finish. Almost OEM looking.
So what did "Santa" bring you? (Automotive or not, post it up)

Santa bought me some stuff with money from my bank account...
4 bolt LT1 block with perfect stock bores/cylinder walls. New freeze out plugs, main caps & bolts, polished stock crank (on Monday), cloyes double roller timing chain setup, ported 58mm opening on intake manifold (going to attempt to port them to match the new heads), Moroso aluminum valve covers, LS7 lifters, and Trick Flow 21* heads.
Oh and my brother bought me a set of forged h-beam ohio crank rods.

I get with my B-day some Machine shop work. Rebuild the stock lt1 and swap in a cc503. Good bye Hotcam. Get it running then save up for a dyno tune. Then just to swap the crappy Mangnaflow exhaust back on for now. Hopefully add a cut out so it can be loud.

Nobody is up around the house yet (5:30am) to know what i got yet for the car but i did take a long road trip to NY to pick up this rare US Exotics Ram Air hood for my dads 95 T/A as a suprise so im sure he will flip his lid when i take him out to the Garage to see it. Just hope its a pretty close paint match and i dont have to redo it. Damn you BGC! 
Here's a teaser on the car i bought it from:
