Whats the name of your project??? - Page 2 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

When I brought my truck home, my daughter said it looked like a daisy because of the yellow with white roof. She has been "Daisy" ever since (even though she is black now).

jrb71c20 · 04-13-2006, 10:27 PM

Mine made me act like a kid with a new toy and with the work it's needed I call it my Truckamuck. Like Palf70step, the wife calls it that too now instead of @$#%&*)!, @# $#%^%, ^%#@!@##$^^&*), (**&&*^%%$#@@ and "that ugly thing"

mikeoj · 04-13-2006, 10:59 PM

My wife named mine.She calls it "it".Is it done yet.Sticking more money into it again.Can't you ever leave it alone.You get the point!

bigblockc10 · 04-13-2006, 11:06 PM

Mine is "Project Overtime" because well I have to work a hell of alot of overtime to afford parts and stuff!!!!

**N2TRUX** · 04-14-2006, 12:22 AM

My 82 Blazer is currently called "$umday"

72 CustomCamper · 04-14-2006, 12:37 AM

I originally named mine Coyote Ugly. But after doing alot of work and getting 1 color of primer on it I renamed it The War Wagon...

Rokcrln · 04-14-2006, 01:02 AM

Well my 71 SWB is "project slow build" it has been 7yrs in the making.

My new 70 2wd blazer is "Project Illusion" You may see why when it is done or you may not!!

One customers rig is "Project Trazer" doing a truck cab on a 2wd blazer"

Another customer rig is "Project Penicillin" for good reasons, RUST!

And a search with these names will show the build thread for all but "project Illusion" won't be shown untill it is done!

Huskerboy2 · 04-14-2006, 01:10 AM

My Blazer is called "Project 1/3 Done" and my 1 ton is called "Haven't Started".

pooz911 · 04-14-2006, 01:23 AM

My truck was called the "white trash chariot" for years. I don't have a new name for it "yet".

sweet n rare67 · 04-14-2006, 01:54 AM

It took me forever find the right name for this project...but it is "Project LONGSTEP" yeah sounds lame....but it started one in simple fixer up step by step thing and now it has blown up into this ernormous life altering thing...Anyhow...

rkarr · 04-14-2006, 01:55 AM

"Tanya Sue"... after my "snooty" neighbor (Her name ironically is Tanya

) that lives across the street and complains about my "old junk".. Can you imagine how pissed she was looking out her front window to see this everyday?

I don't know if she was seriously offended or not, but I decided to have fun with it anyway.

note the PAINTED name on the tailgate before dissasembly.. Would you believe I spent half a day getting this paint job right?!

Before...

A few weeks ago...

I think she'll be impressed when it's done...
The Chassis is done except e-brake and exhaust.. Bodywork has been started...

Tropical Snowstorm · 04-14-2006, 06:14 AM

Peggy, bacuase it's peg legged and used to do burn outs all over the tech school parking lot.

byrd · 04-14-2006, 07:26 AM

I have two without names and just one with a name project afterburn since it caugh fire. pretty corny I know but it fits and serves the truck well

northcountry67 · 04-14-2006, 07:36 AM

I refer to my project as "The resurrection of Papa Smurf"

see ten · 04-14-2006, 07:44 AM

Well there is the SEE TEN

Then this is just the "big truck"

When I had an 84 Silverado I called it the Camorado for obvious reasons.

I had a buddy that insisted on calling my 66 Frankentruck due to all the different donors that allowed it to live.

**BOSS** · 04-14-2006, 07:57 AM

I dont have a name for th 4x4 yet but the shortfleet is called Excalibur,with a name like Arthur King what else could i have called it..lol

glock35ipsc · 04-14-2006, 09:06 AM

My son has called my 68 the "Hot Rod Truck" (more specifically, HIS Hot Rod Truck), and my 70 4x4 has been called "Goldie" since my Dad bought her in 1972.

Schleprock. If anyone remembers the Pebbles and BamBam show, it'll make sense.
