I drug this car a '68 Coronet R/T out of a barn back in 2001 or so it is the "Boston Strangler" already had my '68 RR so I raced it a few times and traded it off to a friend, it has been through a few hands since then. The original owner who I bought it from was a transplant from the Boston area, and he hadn't raced the car in 10 years or so when I picked it up.

Back in 57, my Dad had a white 1957 Chrysler 300 ( 392 hemi powered ) that he called "Moby Dick". My 79 300 = "Moby Dick 2".

A few that I've WANTED to have:

A black anything, called the "Midnite Mistress". I was always still getting loaded up or working on it at midnight, the night before a race.

A black Roadrunner, called "Coyote's Nightmare"

A Hemi powered anything called "Western Hemis-FEAR"

My buddy used to run a drag boat named "Low Dollars and No Sense"

No pics handy but Ohio and Michigan members may remember from a few years ago a bright green and yellow '66 Coronet:

Mogasm!

Old, tired, and sometimes broke down. Me, not my car...

Here another picture of it from the late 60's or early 70's when Bob Reed owned it. If you look real hard at the rear quarter, you can see where it says Locomotion. Beep
