we call our car sheerdartattack

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"

My car in the early 70's.....
The car changed hands & became "Barf-cuda" in the same flashy paint sceme lettered with red house paint & a brush.
Now is "King Fish" (AKA "King Turd" by my close & caring racing friends)

"The nutcracker"
