in my country i'm steriotyped as being a "westie" which is the bougun look in black denum, but i'm from the south which throws a lot of people, & my work uniform is black so i was refered to the rebelious southie which was translated to Southern Rebel. i chose the Rebel flag as my motto & had a talented air brusher apply it to my door. i'm now world famous in my country.

Some Florida race cars over the years:

* Insufficient Funds
* Black Magic
* Cruz Control (owners was Billy Cruz)
* Hog's Breath (was in the Steve Martin movie Parenthood with the Mopar Missile that was in the Garlits museum. I was an extra with my bracket Challenger.
* Pink Panther (Plymouth Duster)
* Super Wagon (early B-body big block wagon)
* Under The Gun
* Excalibur

Others:
* Loose Caboose
* Mountain Hemi
* California Flash
* Godzilla
* Demonstrator (actually on a Dart Sport)
* Cisco Kid
* M&M Express
* Red Light Bandit

.....so many more. I just can't think of them all.


There are a few cars that still use names.

Main Entry: lo·co·mo·tion
Pronunciation: \ˌlō-kə-ˈmō-shən\
Function: noun
Etymology: Latin locus + English motion
Date: 1646
1 : an act or the power of moving from place to place

Little Eva and Grand Funk Railroad were also an influence in the name choice.

I didn't know it until quite a few years ago, but SS/A Hemi racer Bob Reed had that name on one of his cars in the early-mid '60's!

Cool stuff...

Anyone remember Willie Howell's (from NJ) car called, "BIG IRON". I would love to see of someone had a pic of that car.

I would think Fred ought to remember that one, no?
That name just sticks with you....
