Title: Naming your street car Post by: Casey on January 29, 2008, 17:25:24 pm Anyone ever have a nick name for there rig? I'm not saying paint it on the door, just a little somthin' you like to call it. And not like, "my other girl friend". Is it not cool? ??? I've always had one for a certain car I had in high school. Just not sure if that’s something you just keep to yourself.
What are some of them? Title: Re: Naming your street car Post by: Jim Ratto on January 29, 2008, 17:34:46 pm I'd rather not repeat some of the names I have called it over the last 21 years.
