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 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

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.

Oreo is right on!  I just call my cars what the factory called them but it is like a name, I don't put "the" in front of it, when I refer to my F-100 I say "Red and White truck"  my MG is simply "MG" and so on  but my wife's  Triumph we call "Weird Herald". Smile

I call mine "the truck." It took months to come up with that one.BigGrin

It's very easy remember.

I'll go get "the truck."

Let's take "the truck."

I have always called my car Pop's 56 since I inherited it from my dad, but my wife refers to her as Black Vicky.  Imagine the surprise when she told her mother that I was out with Black Vicky again!!

I have a '78 F100 trash truck that is dark green and mostly rust.  I call it "gangreen".  I polish it with WD40.

When I was a teenager, the fad was to name cars, have the name lettered on it.  I had a black/white '56 Victoria.  A friend named it "The Penguin", and lettered that name on it for me.  Dad drove it to work one day, boy did his co-workers rib him about the car.  They liked the duals on it though.  My present named car is my drag car, "Hoosier Hurricane".
