Re: Whats your trucks name

Her name is Ginger. She was spraypainted brown by a Hispanic body shop (LOL) and was deemed Ginger. Now she is brown, but the name still fits. I have repeatedly thought about having a nice sticker made for her window, but i like the way that clean windows look, too.

Re: Whats your trucks name

Just like I do on my horses, I call them by the name of the PO. So my current truck is called Haskel. This can get you in trouble ever now and then if you are not careful.

Re: Whats your trucks name

My truck's name is skeeter is because it had a blown head gasket and it looked like I was spraying for bugs with the white smoke trail behind me!

Re: Whats your trucks name

Stitches is the name she's earned. I've work on her in cycles mostly as money allows. It seems like every cycle I end up with a few new stitches.

When I started her 10 years and two kids ago, she gave me 13 stitches in my chin,,,,,,when I started working on her again several months ago she gave me 14 stitches in my skull.

Re: Whats your trucks name

was the old blue beast, but now, old blue hunk of twisted and mashed, and otherwise unrecognizable seems more appropriate.

Re: Whats your trucks name

my tan 82 used to be the Tan Hog. I even made a sticker for the window that was a picture of the Arkansas Razorback in a sweater. It said Tan Hog underneath it and was pretty snazzy

Re: Whats your trucks name

I haven't named it....my wife and the kids call it "your truck" or Papa's truck. I call it "the '69". It was primered for the past 8 years...grey. But I had a neighbor who swore it was green....would ask about my green truck.

But my favorite reference is to call it "The Poverty Farms Management Vehicle".

Re: Whats your trucks name

I might go with Green Machine and get "GRNMCHN" license plates. My second choice was "Green Monster" but that won't fit on a license plate. I usually refer to it as "The Beast," but that's not too original. Something will come to me eventually.

If I had bought the blue one I would have called it "BLUBURB".

Re: Whats your trucks name

I call my 71 "Big O". Pretty uninspiring name, as its 4x4 and is orange.

Re: Whats your trucks name

Ours is named "Jumpin Jimmy". And I talked to my mechanic/restorer last night and it will be home for the holidays.

I'll get some new pics sometime next week.
