Car names

[Shankin]

My dad was telling me about some of the names of the cars from back in the 50s and 60s. Just curious as to what you guys would name your ride?

Ask Annie what she named her 600 hp Camaro..... http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif

Hint: its on the license plate as well.

I always wanted to do a Stock or S/S car, and letter it up as "the Undertaker"...go figure, huh! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Perfect timing for this post! I am trying to come up with a name for my 55 Nomad Gasser. I have a friend who does vinyl graphics and he is going to make me up something for the sides. I am going to have "427 C.I." in big white letters on the front fenders, with small old style decals on the side glass. Open for suggestions here!
On topic, there were some neat cars around when I was a kid.
Kinnish had a 64 Dodge named "Suspect"
Phill had a 65 Dodge named "Challenger 11".
MacDuffie had a 64 Galaxie named "White Lightning". When he crashed that one at Ubly, he has "Lightning Strikes Again"
Corkey had a 65 Mercury..."Mr.Maurader"
There was a 66-67 El Camino with "Alka-Meano" on it.
In 68-69, we had some race riots. There was a 67 Chevelle with "Grim Reaper" on the side going into the hood and shooting at the rioters.

I've had a number of different names for many of my cars. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif

The local Snap-On dealer has a Red/White '56 Nomad. License is GOMAD.

This one is on her truck which she normally refers to as Brommie. Can't imagine WHERE she came up with that nickname other than she rides one. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

How about "NOMADS LAND" or "MAD GASSER" ?

[x Baldwin Motion]

I remember seeing "Highway Star" on a Burnished Brown? 69 Camaro and at least two or three other street cars in the 70's but can't find a single one on the web http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif...Glenn?

[Dog427435]
