Subject: Car names. Let's hear 'em.

Somebody mentioned their car earning its name, which got me thinking. Let's hear 02 names!

Mine: Bernard Mickey Wrangle (Outlaw for short).

Subject: "The Keiser"

I have a lot of names, but really can't decide on one. The car is not done yet anyway.

I like Keiser,
or White Lightening
or White Power-being German built- J/K
Zender or Zepher
Mein Car
or Die Schnitzer
Dieter
or Quester-being a 69 model
maybe: Schnitzenheimerschmit-his name is my name too.
or Chris Weber
Helmut (at autox races)
but now I call it the Lil' white car, with no graphics yet it still has an identity crisis needing paint and all. What do you think

Subject: My 75 was Redracer.....

My boss at Mr Goodcents named it that because it was verona and the way I would come flying into the parking lot for work. Its nickname was Damn Thing.

My 74 has yet to be named as I have not driven it enough to figure one out.

I chopped out the divider between rear seat and trunk, and built a two sided cage below 1/4 glass, and behind front seats. Some nanny types have been shocked seeing me put the dogs in the trunk, but a pox on all nannies.

Subject: "Bimmerschmitt" and "Rummy"...

"Buddy" changed his name to "Bimmerschmitt" in honor of his upcoming Me-109 paint job (track car).
"Rummy" named in honor of the fact that I got her for a bottle of rum, literally. (73 rolling shell...soon to be weekend runabout.)

Subject: Re: Car names. Let's hear 'em.

Original owner named our car "Zoomer".

I tend to just call it "sunofabitch" (bitch for short) when things don't go right. Come to think of it, that's what I call all my cars, but none more so than the Audi when we had that.

The only name i've given so far is the frankenbimmer project 'the Blu Demon' -- a 75 i'm putting a 72 tii engine in.

My agave 74tii i've been thinking it might be 'The Green Hornet'.

I was fascinated with these sculpture, shows that even at that time people had a sense of humour. Car was malaga (burgundy) so it was only fitting. We even went to Boboli Gardens to actually see it, wife was not amused...
