Names for your car........Let's hear em.

Yea you could say its earned its stripes.

 

Our 1930 Coupe's name is "Abilene"

 

here's a shot of my Dad's 32 5 window he raced 1956-1962 called "THE SCAG"

 

The Ugly Ducklin'

Its homage to a Swedish '63 'vette that raced in the 70's.It had 90'10's shocks and when it ran,the wheels used to toe-in.Looked weird but the name never suited a car better.........."frighten' chicken'" love it

 

My car now is 'Babe' a 62 Falcon, but when I was in Jr High I drew a picture of a 60 Falcon kinda like Ed Roth and called it "Squeeky" Fords are bad about the upper a-arms squeeking in the 60's. Hada' keep'um greased.

 

My '53 Plymouth wagon is named "The Pig". The name was given to her by her previous owner and it just seemed to fit. When I first bought her she was faded and oxidized so she appeared more pink than beige and only the roof was brown. She also was fat and ugly so the name was perfect. It just stuck.

 

I have some on the studebaker forum .I ahven't figered out how to put them an the hamb studebaker groupe (YET) I'm trying Rocky

 

I sometimes name my cars...

I sometimes call her Mercula but I sometimes think about a name like Miss Darline...

 

In 1962 I bought a 1953 Oldsmoble Super 88 2 door sedan. Names on cars by then were "the in thing" Well I wanted a Disney charactor The Tasmanina Devil. THe airman in outfit at Omaha was doing the painting of names on cars. He told me 50 cents a letter for both sides??? I told him joking that I only had $2.00 on me, which back then would buy about 8 gallons on ethel gasoline. He said "give him the $2.00 and he would put a name on my car. Well severals hours later, went to see the finished product. You will never believe what he did for $2.00

He painted the word "IF" on both sides. THat named stuck with that car for several years at Omaha. I wonder "if" is still out there somewhere

Back in 2000, I blew the engine on my Harley, while heading back from the Sturgis m/c Rally and I was stuck in Ohio and had to get home in two days. Instead of going to a "Rental company" I checked out the classifieds and saw an older Ford pickup for sale located at an old farm. It ran good so I bought it and loaded up the bike. When I got back to R.I., my friends came by to help me unload it. Later, I popped the hood and surprised everyone because it had a 401 Nailhead in it. That's when one of the guys said that they liked my "Bufford pickup".

 

Meet Canned Heat.........

 

mine came with a name on it that stuck

(midnight)

 

I named my 56 Buick Degüello. I am a huge ZZtop fan(this is the name of one of thier old albums. And I thought the defenition was cool.

El Degüello is a bugle call, notable in the US for its use as a march by Mexican Army buglers during the 1836 Siege and Battle of the Alamo.<SUP> </SUP>"Toque a Degüello" was introduced to the Americas by the Spanish armies and was later adopted by the patriot armies fighting against them during the Spanish American wars of independence. It was widely used by Simon Bolivar's armies, notably during the Battle of Junin and the Batle of Ayacucho.
"Degüello" is the first-person singular present tense of "degollar", a verb that means "to cut the throat." More figuratively, it means "give no quarter." It "signifies the act of beheading or throat-cutting and in Spanish history became associated with the battle music, which, in different versions, meant complete destruction of the enemy without mercy." It is similar to the war cry "¡A degüello!"used by Cuban rebels in the 19th century to launch mounted charges against the Spanish infantry.

 

So far, the only names I've used for my '35 Ford are "giant turd" and "piece a crap". I'm hoping that will change with time... but for now they kinda fit well.
