Re: How does your board name connect you to your truck...then again maybe it doesn't?
Doubleb's69 stands for my name and my sons name ( Bud and Buck ) and the 69 is because thats what I had when I joined the site.

Re: How does your board name connect you to your truck...then again maybe it doesn't?
I discovered this site a few months before I bought my truck. While I was looking for one to buy, one of my friends kept kidding me about wanting an old, full size truck and he started calling me billybob. That name wasn't available when I signed up, and just wanting to be done with the signup process, I became "bollybib". Kinda dumb but I've gotten used to it.

Re: How does your board name connect you to your truck...then again maybe it doesn't?
pretty self explanatory, it was rather rusty when I started and still is. I spelled "buket" wrong on purpose after I tried a few other names that were not available. I actually named the truck "Georgia" because thats the state I bought it from, couldn't think of anything better at the time and rust bucket was an unloving name for her.

Re: How does your board name connect you to your truck...then again maybe it doesn't?
When I used to race my # was 6X.
My sign painter put a little "SickSex" on the side of the car. When I quit driving and started racing online my handle was SickSex. One racing league didn't like that name (no idea why) so I hung on my last name instead and there you go it's stuck with me ever since.

Re: How does your board name connect you to your truck...then again maybe it doesn't?
well...............I was looking for something "clever and catchy" to put on a personal license plate and started messing around with the year of my truck(1969). So I came up with "into69z" and I had to explain to the Cali DMV it meant "I was into restoring 1969 trucks...........got the plates and joined this forum.........a problem I didn't think through though was the fact my wife refused to ride in the truck with that plate.....I changed it to a regular plate now!

I can't believe that no one took the idea of my plate before, or that the CT DMV gave it to me. Someone there must've been in a good mood that day!

As far as my user name goes, I originally thought of using my nickname Codeman but decided that since this board has to do with Chevy trucks and I'm a Chevy fan I went with Chevyman. The 00 is for the year 2000 and as far as the 68 and 63 well...

Mine covers everything I like and everything I have driven through the years.
(Plus "GMC1000 - GMC9500 Bill" was just too long of a name, lol) Bill

Re: How does your board name connect you to your truck...then again maybe it doesn't?
Mine has nothing to do with trucks. I was a defensive lineman for my High School football team. The Athletic Department couldn't afford decent uniforms or pads for the team, so we had to use old, outdated equipment to suit out for games. My senior year, I had to wear the largest shoulder pads that I have ever seen. As we took the field on our first game all my team mates started making fun of my pads and calling me "Noneck". The nickname stuck.

Re: How does your board name connect you to your truck...then again maybe it doesn't?
I have spent a MAJOR portion of my life at Glamis Dunes, and have been to most Dune areas of the west. I used to live and breathe sand! Every other weekend, we would make the 4.5 hour trek to Glamis. Literally ten's of thousands $ spent on go fast toys.
Today... not so much. Starting with the Crusty's videos, the mayhem started. the drunken, lawless, free for all orgy insued. That brought the BLM down on ALL visitors! Shortly thereafter, the CBD decided that a poisionus weed was endangered. Law suits closed most of the Dunes. Spent years, hours, and $$$ fighting the tree huggers and the BLM. The little tikes are not allowed to ride around camp. BLM cruising your camp looking for ANYTHING. I gave up! I am lucky to go once a season now. Still love the sand, just not what it has become |

Re: How does your board name connect you to your truck...then again maybe it doesn't?
Turp Mcspray was a custom car painter, from a Krass and Bernie story, that was in a 1981 issue of the now defunct magazine, CARtoons. Anyone remember reading those?

Re: How does your board name connect you to your truck...then again maybe it doesn't?
I'm here EVERY day! It really hurts my feelers that you don't notice more often. You just need to look harder. I'm one of those guys that wears all black, and lurks in the shadows. I can be a little hard to see sometimes. Man do I miss CARtoons! LOL!!

Anyhoo... my initials are G.A.S. So you can imagine the nicknames I had as a kid. "The Gasoline Kid" kinda stuck for awhile when i was a little twerp... and so GASoline seemed fitting for a user name. The "71" is the first drag car I had. A 1971 El Camino SS. Wish I had that one now... lol! Cool thread! Gary
