Project Names
« on: January 05, 2007 - 11:39:23 PM »
I affectionately refer to my project as "Project Go-Fish". I came up with the name because of the game. I like Rumble Fish but that name has been taken a few times. I remember seeing a feature in Mopar Muscle on a Pro Street Barracuda years ago.
The Pro-Touring guys seem to always name their ride so thought I would just come up with something even though there isn't alot of meaning behind it. I designed a logo, if you will, that resembles the Direct Connection logo but it has since been lost/misplaced.
Does anyone else have a name for their project or ride and what is the story behind it? I can't be the only one here. :bigsmile:

Yep. LBB needs a new home so the money can feed the BGM.  :roflsmiley:

Well,
I guess you can say that mine is a "challenge"

My wife refers to it as the pile of junk in the garage.- POJG
I have referred to it as  my deserted basket-case Challenger- DBCC

I have yet to give it a formal name.

After taking my 77 year old father on a "Hold on to somethin" seat of yer pants ride in my Canary yellow '68 Barracuda, He affectionately named it: "The Screamin' Yellow Zonker" and thus the name has stuck!! It's kinda worn on me and gives me a chuckle everytime I hear him say it because I know I scared the crap out of my old man and should have been ashamed of myself :scared: It sure was fun seeing the look on his face. It also reminds me of a picture in the "Burnout" section of one of the C.C. fellas doing a burnout with his seventy-something year old MOM in the car!! LOL!!

My current Cuda has taken over as the Orange Pumpkin as my first orange 70 Cuda always looked like it would have looked good with a green stem coming out of the center of the roof around halloween. The name stuck with my first 70 440-six barrel Cuda the hole time I had it and fits my current 70 340 Cuda perfect.
