Re: What's you cars name?

Charlie,

Great story on having a paint & body guy to restore your car! That is the hardest/most expensive part of our car resto hobby...every other aspect is a piece of cake in my book but I shudder at the trials and tribulations I have had with paint & body guys or shops.

Can you send us some pics?

CAR NAMES are FUNNY and I call my 1965 Satellite "WIDOW MAKER". That is because after I tore it apart for the restoration 16 years ago, my health started going south on me in a big hurry and I figured I would croak before I ever got it finished HA! HA! HA! Then my oldest daughter married the best paint and body repairman in our area. What a blessing that was, as he has a shop at their house too and he told me to drag the car over there and together we would finish it right. That to me was like winning the lottery after all those years and it sets finished now in my heated warehouse for it's winters nap. I can't wait to get it out and do some cruising around next summer. It's all black in and out with a 426 Street Wedge and a 4 speed with 3.91 gears. Take Care everyone and keep up the old stories, Charlie.

I may just call the car Johnny, because it fits the car better. HA! Maybe I'll get more obscure and name the car "Shel", after the man who wrote the poem, "A Boy Named Sue".

> OK, you asked. Prepare for reminiscing. Other than my first car, none have had a name. But my first car I bought for $250 in about 1981 or so and my friends called it the "Blues Mobile". It was a flat battleship grey 4 door 1970 Chevy Bel Air with a black vinyl top, 350 and a lot of rust. Ugly and mean looking but it fit a bunch of us and got us around and it got me up and down to college in Burlington, VT for four years (not always without incident). "It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses.""Hit it." Yes, I know it wasn't a 74 Dodge Monaco, but what the hell did we know.Anyway, one fun memory is me driving myself and 5 friends to play ice hockey. The trunk was huge and packed full of equipment and sticks. On the parkway my 3 friends in the back seat started bitching about smoke. I said "Calm down, it's just blow-by dripping on the exhaust manifold." Then
> in the rear-view mirror I could see it was full of smoke and they were hanging their heads out the window. We pulled over onto the shoulder and popped the trunk, and half the hockey equipment and sticks were on fire. The trunk was rusted through and the 70's shag carpet covering the holes had slipped down onto the exhaust pipe and caught fire. I had to buy the beers that night.The Blues Mobile's death (or at least divorce from me) was fun. On New Year's Eve, maybe about 1987 or so, I decided to go up to Hunter Mountain by myself for a day of skiing; about 175 miles or so from my house on Long Island. My Dad said I was nuts. Got there fine, had a great day skiing, then broke down just outside of Hunter. I didn't know as much about cars then as now, which still isn't much. Being about 7:00 on New Year's Eve with no cell phone and cold, it was hard to figure out a way to get it fixed. I got to a diner and asked a couple of locals if
> they wanted a 70 Chevy for nothing. They said "What's wrong with it?" and I said "It doesn't work." I signed it over, took the plates and my skiis and boots and started thumbing it. Managed to make it to Brewster, NY, about 60 mile away, just ahead of midnight, where my old college roommate luckily was having a New Year's party. Had fun that night. Then I convinced a couple of friends from Long Island to go up to Vermont to go skiing where we could stay free and they picked me up on the way. Got back home about a week later wearing the same clothes and my Dad said "Told ya."I miss those days.- JimJim Altemose, Long Island, NY'63 Polara 500 (Max Wedge)'63 Polara 500 (383)'65 Belvedere I (Street Wedge)'71 Bronco
