I call mine "Roadster". My other cars are named "Acura" (or "car"), "Nissan" (aka "minivan"), and "411" (sometimes "Bluebird" but that sounds kinda froofroo). How's that for original?
I affectionately refer to my '65 SP310 as the "MONEY PIT"! Not really, but I am dead keen to restore her to ex factory with original parts. Thanks to this list and that wonderful invention, eBay, I'm

Well, everyone knows my car now as SAKEPWR, since that's the license plate. But "back in the day" when it was a very faded white, it was "Mighty Mouse."
I have a '00 used cop car (Crown Victoria) that has been mildly souped-up 30HP shy of Kenny Brown's Panther. It's kinda of a Hotrod. Enter my '69 SRL311. It became the Limprod. I have had a difficult
I remember that Hagar the Terrible once was quoted in his comic strip as saying that it's important to remember pillage BEFORE you burn. ;>) I try to keep that advice in mind. RD
I call my resto project Franky, or Frankenroadster. Lovingly named because it's being put together with parts from lots of roadsters. And if my solex-powered stroker comes out right, it just might be
