When I was in high school, one of my sister's friends drove a brown car that was called "The Brown Frown". I still laugh about that one from time to time. Actually, I'm pretty sure it was an A-body too.
Other car nicknames, for fun and inspiration:
Blue Bomber: My parents "ice blue" 1980s Plymouth Voyager.
Miss Vicky: My 1985 Ford LTD Crown Victoria, not too creative but hey.
Spooky: My sister's 1986 Dodge 600, with an erratic idle and intake issue that made it wail like a ghost.
Gray Menace: My 1992 Mercury Sable in Opal Gray.
Battle Wagon: My 1995 Subaru Outback, no real explanation.
Sara Ciera: My (current) 1996 Olds Ciera (named so as the former owner was named Sara.)
Twinkie Van: Dad's old GMC Savana work van, looked like a big white twinkie.Oldsmobile Quality. Feel It.

Well it sounds like we will get your daughters approval.
I also just found out that Speed TV's Lucas Oil On The Edge show will be fillming the race. So our Garanimal Cutlass Ciera might make it on TV

Well the car is about as ready as its going to be. Here are some pics of it from this morning. Its in the shade still so not quite as shiny and bright as it is in the sun. Should have some more pics this weekend, hopefully some in the sun.
Cutlass gave us permission to do this, he must not have known what he was doing.

I thought you were gonna run the old school 5 spokes? definitely looks decent! heck, the paint job;s better than some of the cars i've seen at RAT ROD shows!!"All art is subject to political manipulation except that which speaks the language of the same manipulation."

the goal with the paint job is for it to look good at 50 feet while its going 50mph, so 20 foot is ok.
Course now we have a new list of things to do, including figuring out what took us out at the end.
oh and we used the rally wheels too. we ended up using 3 tires on the front left. We have some understeer issues we have to figure out for next year. Power wise we weren't all that far off alot of the leaders, its cornering that made the big difference.
