Don't know how many here know who Pete Millar was but he ran a couple cars with interesting names. His blown coupe that was painted a sickly green color called 'GangGreen'. Or his old fuel coupe named the 'Chicken Coupe'.
You can see a lot of the old cars on the website, www.wediditforlove.com

Here is my scoop.
First my handle is of course what you see above, FULLMETALJACKET," not because I'm an ex-marine or love guns, but because my car is entirely metal. No fiberglass or carbon fiber composites.
The name doesn't apply to my car but just me as my handle on this board.

Now, the names of cars that I've seen on the street or the track that stick to mind are:

*Emotional Rescue

*Satisfaction

*Quarter Pounder, nightmare on any street.

*The Silver Bullet (Detroit's own)

*Mr. Hyde

and of course my very own current "Nemesis"

A few years back there was a car dodge called Morgasim i thought about The Big Lebowski and the dart is called Sheer Dart Attack




It was actually Mogasm. '66 Coronet - we ran it at NRP and 42. Not my car but I got to split the driving


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

I gotta go with The Mopar Missile. Always liked Color Me Gone, California Flash, Swamp Rat, Jade Grenade, and Red Light Bandit, too. Locomotion is cool, too.
My '57 Chevy back in the day was "Frustration", and probably the silliest name on this thread so far is what I call my Duster, due to a buddy making fun of it being 'only a squeak-motor (small-block) car': "Squeaky". I think I've posted enough pics of it by now that everyone here has seen it. The current motor is Frankensqueak.
The "Itchin' to Win" Vagisil car was hysterical!
