I dont name my cars. But some of them come to me named.

The GXL I drive right now is "Rocky"
The GXL I threw away was named "Eyesore"
The 86 Base I threw away was named "Cubert"
Pele named my 87 TII Parts car "The Slammer"

I call my other 87 TII parts car "DAK's car" because DarkAngelKamui used to own it
I call my 90 Convertable "The "Vert" because thats what everyone esle calls it

I'm debating calling my running TII "Christine" because thats how I got her, Mazda dealership said she was dead, said the engine was blown, and the compression testor read a solid ZERO on all faces .. . . just pushing her around in circles till suddenly she fired up and ran.. . . but it still had low compression . . . kept driving it in circles till it got more and more compression . . .

i'm not sure why tho just kinda fit
Betsy is the name of a big cow of a call, like we call the 88 Oldsmobile "bessie".





My Rx-7 is named "ZipTie", cause everything on that car has been held in place with zipties at least once in its life. Although I think most have proper mounting now.. Time to tear into it again
