So what did Santa Bring you?

Post by comethead »

Ill start.......
Not car related at all. My Comet has been spoiled all year so no parts this time.
I got a box magazine retro-fit kit for my .308 bolt action rifle. Santa is very cool after all.

Santa was supposed to bring me a glove box insert, trunk boards, a trunk mat and a new antenna. What I got instead was a 'backorder notice' on all of these. >.<
Not too impressed with this particular supplier.

Close :D Well, maybe this is just a one time thing for them, but Auto Krafters is the one all of this was ordered from. I understand backorders will happen because we (Comet folks) are a small community... What really irritates me is they didn't notify me at the time of order that this stuff wasn't in stock, then 12 days after placing the order I had not heard a single thing from them, so I called to ask about the status of the order. The lady that took the call acted like I was bothering her because I asked for a status - since they had not provided any >.<

Well, Santa was good to me this year. I had only gotten my Comet in November, but that made for a quick and easy Christmas list (as I am usually tough to shop for, they tell me). So under the tree I found the following auto related items.

Car Cover
Fender Protector
1960-64 Lincoln/Mercury Master Parts Catalog (on CD)
NOS Merit brand replacement muffler for 1962 Comet
The Ford Falcon Six Cylinder Performance Handbook (can I say either of the "F" words on this forum?)
Simichrome Metal Polish
Original 1962 Mercury Comet Brochure
Mercury Sales & Service porcelain sign (repro)
Craftsman 7-piece Universal Ratcheting Wrench Set - Standard
and from my daughter - Red Fuzzy Dice!

Here are a few pix..

So, it was a very good Christmas

Thats odd. Ive never had an issue with them. And I think most of your parts ordered arent really Comet specific...actually Fairlane stuff.
Well everyone has a bad day...
