It took about 3 to 6 months before I realized that I was turning into Arnie every time I drove the 'Vette. I'd put on sun glasses and a leather jacket, comb my hair back and drive like a mad man, until I almost tee boned a cop while I was sliding through a yellow, no make that red now, traffic light. The officer didn't even ask me for my license, registration or insurance card. He just walked up and said "Good evening, Mr. Geiger."
I had it coming.
Fortunately I did not have any points or violations and was able to pay the fine down to a no points violation.
My Corvette's name is Christine, from the Stephen King movie by the same name.
Now if she would only do her own body work and mechanical repairs while I slept and let me keep my money in my pocket...
 
Expensive POS......

Nah, really, no name .... Just "the old Vette" ...... :bump::bump:

"Sucks more money out of me than any girl friend or wife ever has.... difference is I still like the car and it's still with me"

:bounce::bounce::bounce:
 
Never had a name for any car I have ever owned....

Wife here now had a couple.....but none for her DD now....

not that I have heard anyway.....

The Miata was 'Clown car' the Escort was Betsey.....




My car is just a mutt, no name....


:surrender:
 
Every car I've ever owned would be "moneysuckingpieceofcrapasshole"..... Then again, the owner is male so that might make a difference..... For (most) females it's:
"Moneysuckingpieceofcrapthatcostmeafortunebuthubbytakescareofit"

We call the 76 RED! One day the wife and I were going to go shopping and she said, "Let's take Red". It has been RED ever since!

The 78 is call"Darth" for Darth Vader Vette - the RestoMod project I hope to be able to get back to soon. Sometimes, life gets in the way of our fun!!!!
 
POS Corvette, Ratty Old Corvette, or CANAM502 depending on my mood...

Most people call it the Batmobile...

My 69 Coupe, with an L88 Clone engine, Doug Nash 5 speed transmission, Hooker sidepipe headers, was known as "Ratso." The name reflected the engines' BB Rat engine. I parked Ratso in a Public Storage unit and the storage unit manager stole the car. The police said this was a very common event. Park something in a Public Storage unit, and if the management realizes you'll be gone for a while, and what you've stored has value, it'll be gone.

I'm now working on Son of Ratso. It's a race to finish the car before I'm forced into retirement. It slowly keeps moving forward at a slow rate. It's my 1970 BB.
