My wife is asking me what I want for Christmas. Might as well be something for the car, or for the experience of driving.
Any suggestions ?

From your profile pic, you may appreciate Dwight Knowlton's "The Small Silver Speedster".
It's hard to call that a gift for you, but nevertheless.
On a more practical front, I put together a Speedster Essential Road Kit list a couple years ago based on input from @Gordon Nichols.
How bout my Left foot folding footrest ? Or a set of my wing windows ? Or a set of my Sun Visors? Or a Front ,quick release, license plate holder ?
$1000 gas card ....

Why not tell her you want a nice, cozy blanket for staying warm on those chilly fall drives?
You'll both know it's not really for you.
Not as cool as a new torque wrench, but think of all the good Karma.
It's been a bad year for good Karma.

I guess I have to tell her about the book, since I already lifted some of the the art.
Keep `em coming
This is a great suction cup phone holder that works with magnets. It works great.

Please tell me about the wing wind deflectors
thank you
paul
Greetings Paul.........The Wind Wings are very popular and do deflect some of the wind coming around the sides of the windshield. They can remain on if you use your side curtains. The Visors must be removed to put the top up. They are attached to the windshield frame with a clamping device which has a contact isolation barrier between it and the surface of your windshield to protect the finish. They are easily installed with the provided Allen wrench and can be removed in one minute while sitting in your seat.
Attached is a photo of them mounted on my Speedster. I included one photo of a red one as well, just to show what else can be done with them. The price is $215.00. If you were a Supporting Member on this site, the shipping would be included.........Bruce
When we go to Carlisle we usually bring a few of my wife's water color speedster or spyder prints for the Saturday night raffle. Those prints and many others are available printed on glass, metal, canvas, acrylic or paper. Matted and framed or not. I believe they will even do coffee cups, puzzles, t-shirts , tote bags and almost anything you can think of.
Please forgive this shameless Holiday promotion. I will now say 3 " Hail Marys ".
Here is a link to her web page:
No need for forgiveness, Al. Heidi's art is exemplary! Of course, I'm a bit biased as I have a couple of pieces, thanks to her generosity!
"Please tell me about the wing wind deflectors" - @wombat
I have a pair of the wing wind deflectors and am amazed by the quality and fit of these accessories (as with ALL of Bruce's products). Adds a nice detail to the car. You won't be disappointed!
P.S. As noted by Alan Gallo, Heidi Gallo's artwork would be an excellent addition to your office art!
@Al Gallo, your wife is gifted! I added this one to my wishlist:
(Please tell me this place still exists.)

Ryan, all these cars with the exception of the Chevy SS and the Woodie belong to members of the SOC. The red car is just like mine and belongs to Carl Mosima (sp) who took the photo. I believe he was in California and I'm not sure if he is still a member. Member Dave Kumph (again sp) has the original in Pa.
Thanks for looking.
