Sorry but my wife came in while I was reading this and she says "Oreo is a cats name that should be called Skunk"    That is what she said not me.  LOL

My present vehicles have acquired names over time.  I have a 1994 Ford F-150 that has become Jeffs' Truck, because I bought it from my son Jeffrey.  My wife has a Silver Nissan 350Z which, almost inevitably became the Silver Bullet, and my '56 Ford became, according to my wife, the Toy Car because she says that I play with it all of the time.  There might be some sort of inference there, but I haven't figured it out yet.  Any ideas?

I just remembered, Old age and all, that my first '56 Customline was lettered with Ghost Rider. I always liked  Vaughn Monroes' version of that song.

I figured black on black should have a dark name so with defference to Kat Stevens I took the name "MoonShadow" Even made up a logo for it once but never put it on the car.

The roadster was named by my grandson when he was very young I took him for rides and he called it the "Red Jeep". I guess it just stuck. Chuck in NH

mine's simply "the Ford", cause when the kids were all small, that was the easiest thing for them to say when referring to the hulk residing in the garage...!

now that its back together, painted real pretty and driveable, we call it "The Ford"!

I don't name them anymore but of course we all did back in the 50s.My first "real" licensible car was a 53 Pontiac Catalina that I bought on my 16th birthday in 58.It was a light yellow color so after some shaving and lowering an artistically inclined friend painted Ol' Yeller on the side.

For the youngsters out there Ol' Yeller was a Disney movie about an old yellow dog,which described that straight 8 Hydramatic Pontiac to a T.

Well, I didn't name my car, but the man I bought it from owned it from 1958-2005.  When I was pulling out with it on my trailer in S. California, he said Bye "Ol Black"...so out of respect, I guess it is still Ol Black.
