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

So Jeff, did the GM part of the name mean Great Meadows Hustler since Ed ran out of that little village

Not a car "name", but there was a wagon that ran at the old Houston track that I'll never forget. It had "SPONSORED BY WEAKLY SALARY" on the quarter panels.

Has anyone mentioned "Metal Mistress"? Think it was a big ole' Impala wagon out of Connecticut. Maybe Frank Tantillo?
