Always liked the "High Adventure Hemi's" as well!

My 1967 firebird racecar is called. Neiborhood complaint..as my fellow neibors didt like car.

Re: Car Name Memories
 

Just curious..How much did it cost to get "Neiborhood" painted on your car? ;-)

Re: Car Name Memories
 

Just curious, was your car named Neiborhood complaint or Neighborhood complaint ? Asking for a friend....

My Dad and I named our 1st drag car "Frustration" also. A '60 Impala w/ a 348, and a powerglide. We had a lot of fun, but it was all a learning experience too, hence the name. Non-related but still a good story: In the fall of 1969 a guy named Roy Crandall showed up to the Cicero,NY
strip with a new Factory S/S AMX. It was very fast, but He missed a shift
& blew the engine in the final of S/S. The next spring he returned and had "2nd Attempt" painted on the doors. The car was pretty cool to me as a diehard 17 year old Chevy kid back then.
Stay safe everyone, and God Bless.

Any body remember a Ford Pinto, I think it was a Super Gas car, named Blazing Saddles? That one was kind of neat.
