Yes, I'm one of those sad people who have named every car he's ever owned.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)
I was talking to my brother (who picked up my new baby last night) and he wanted to know what I was going to name it.. Not having seen the car in person, or even sat in it yet, I couldn't answer him. BUT, it got me to thinking about it at least... I also began wondering what you guys have named your cars (if you will admit to anything!).... C'mon.. Don't be shy!

my first car, a '65 (?) VW 1500 (later 1600) 'S' Notchback was named 'Wolfgang.' it was replaced by a very rusty, very early Euro 912 which got named 'Beowulf' after a long series of dramatic adventures. the white Euro 914.6 that replaced it was not named. the yellow 914.6 had a name, but it will be getting a new one (and a -complete- thematic treatment) once it's together and running again. the '53 Coupé had a name related to its color, but since it won't be that color long after i start the restoration, it's lost rights to that name...
the '83 ur-GTI SCCA SOLO-II caar was, of course, The WonderBunny. Joy's '94 Sentra is referred to as 'The Nissan Valdez' and the Subaru Outback has no name as of yet. the ex-LB '71 911E may or may not get a name, as its personality presents itself. as it's white, and i have a fondness for strong German beers named, by tradition, names ending in "-ator" (e.g. Kulminator, Optimator, Triumphator...) it may well wind up being named "Kelvinator." too soon to tell... |
