Some groups that I raced with didn't like that name for some reason so I kept the Sick and added my last name.
I've used it for multiple forums ever since.

Some people have their sense of humor removed early on.

I only have 2 words too say about the latest responses.

Getter Done.

[1970cstblazer]

My name refers to one of my favorite vehicles, my 1970 Blazer with the CST option. My dad special ordered it from Elm Chevrolet in Elmira, NY. This dealer is still in operation at the same location since 1939. The Blazer was bought new in April of that year, and driven 54k miles until it was parked in June 1978. It sat until I was given the vehicle in the summer of 1987. I fixed it up as well as a teenager could, using Hemmings Motor News to source parts, and as well as a local GM dealer, since a lot of new GM parts were still available. I drove it year round from August 1991-June 1998, when it became very rusted again with 93,541 miles on it. It sat at my parents field until June 2023, when I trailered it and it's 1972 donor to my house to finally be rebuilt. I had collected many NOS parts over that 25 year span.

It's not done yet, but finally, I am seeing light at the end of this very long tunnel.

Never would have guessed. That's pretty funny. Thanks Copy Guy ; )

Your name is one I wondered about. It seemed so specific. Nice if only we could get Ricky snickers on this thread: Ricky, candy bar? Ricky, laughs a lot? Ricky's nickers...? ; ) I don't know.

I was reading this thinking: say you kept it, say you kept it. Glad you did and it's coming out very nice.
