My mom had "Witchy Woman". My dad had "The Judge" on his '66 GTO (before Pontiac brought out the trim package), "Crystal Blue Persuation" on our '70 Firebird. Yes I know it's spelled 'sion but he wanted the 'ti' in there to pay omage to the "tin indian". Our '90 Firebird had "Reflections" on the side. And many other friends...

I really miss people naming their cars. It gave 'em personalitys. I don't know why people stopped but it was sure fun while they did it.

It was that way when he bought his first car. The first car also had "Can you beleve a 283 ?". My Dad's traveling buddies called him "Mr. Aggrivation" on the CB radio. I bought my Camaro, Aug 1,1996, and went to Greer Dragway to do my first burn out. A long time racing friend said "Little Aggrivation has a car now". I liked it, and put "Li'l Aggravation" on the side of my car. I had to spell it correctly! Almost two years ago now, Dad bought his Grand Prix, and he put "Mr. Aggravation" back on it. Unfortunately, both cars have become an aggravation with breaking parts and just not working like they should.

Not sure if it has been mentioned , but Sox& Martin's 65 AF/X was called the Paper Tige because it's acid dipping made the vehicle very,very, very thin.I was arount the car when Vernon Rowley and Buckeye had it, and boy their was not much left of the metal under that paint

It was awesome to see these old names I spent many a night in your garage working on your dads car. When I saw Jim and Audrey's name it took me back to the night we chopped the roof, We started talking about how cool it would look with the roof chopped and Audrey threatened us not to chop it, she and jim mad the mistake of going to dinner and by the time they got back your dad and I had taken I believe it was 4 inches out of the roof. When she looked at it she loved it. It then got the Candy Apple Perl Morono Blue paint job. There used to be a guy called Pink also don't remember his real name but he always ran a front engine digger of course it was painted pink. Lots of memories at OCIR.

Here's a few more:

  • Probably my all-time favorite race car name, "Time & Money", an ET / Super Gas Vega (and later Corvette) campaigned by Marc Schifferle in WNY and southern Ontario
  • Mopar Missile (the 2nd generation name of the factory-backed Chrysler Pro Stock team formerly known as the Motown Missile)
  • Fred Hahn (of Pro Modified fame) campaigned a blown altered name "Satan's Revenge", primarily in WNY at Lancaster Dragway and on tour with the Supercharged Warriors
  • Gary Burgin's "The Orange Baron" - I loved the way that car looked when I was a kid:
