Need F/Mer\'s help! Name the new bucket!

OK-
I now have an '86 SVO to play with. Canyon Red, w/ primer hood and fender. I thought us knuckle dragging, Ford V8 in big iron guys were weird- The turboford folks are in a whole 'nother realm. They love Pinto's for chrissakes!

Well, we need to start writing about it and a name just doesn't leap out at me like the other two cars. It will keep the turbo Pinto motor, be a daily driver that hopefully can stick w/ newer V8's while still knocking down 28mpg+ on the HWY. And since it is built to handle, head out for some autocross and open track.

We need suggestions for names and then will narrow it down, possibly w/ a vote. Appropos, No?

Let the creative juices flow!

How about Zippy?

or Cambells? (its red, its condensed, I dont know Im a dork), for that matter you could just call it Souped?

Like I said, Im a dork. My 71 Mustangs name is Cletus, take that for what its worth.

I like Cletus. As I grew up in SC any Dukes of Hazzard reference makes me smile.

How about some kind of refernce to being turbo'ed, boosted or 4cylinder underdog? ALL sugestions welcome-

funny thing, I wasnt even thinkin of the Dukes when I thought of that. I had just got the car, in her faded, sun bleached glory. And I thought, "Gee, that car looks like it belongs on blocks in front of a trailer in alabama" And it hit me, call the car Cletus.

How 'bout Turbodawg? Not good, but what can you expect from someone who has a '64 Custom named Ellwood and a '79 T-Bird named Bitch Blue....[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

Since it's half a V8, how about "half-pint"?
