A buddy of mine has an evil all black 70 Camaro. I suggested he put pall bearer handles on it, three on each side, and call it "The Widow maker"......he wasn't too impressed with my idea..... Here's one of my all time favorite cars, "Standing Room Only". I wish I had more pictures of it.
Always wanted an early 60' chevy ll named " Novacain " Had a '69 Camero in the '70's " Quarter Pounder "
I can't believe that none of the Minnesota guys came up with "The Skag", Bob McGinley's SBC powered '32 coupe that ran at Minnesota Dragways in the late '50's , early '60's. It had the grille insert painted with the ugliest woman you've ever seen, warts and all. I've got a picture of it somewhere, but I just moved, and I can't even find my own ass.
Here's three of the coolest ever; Bill Maverick's Little Red Wagon Foulger Fords Back Up Pickup Chuck Poole's Chuck Wagon

Here in Phoenix there is a couple that comes to mind. There was a VW Bug called Inch Pincher. Johnny Loper had the Lil Hoss. Another bug had a Plate that Said I8AV8 on it. Peaches and Scream.......Hostile Takeover. Mike
"Hand Shaker" Don't even remember what kind of car it was but I saw it at the Reunion in BG Ky a couple of times. Had a neat looking cartoon painted under it of a guy's forearm and hand holding onto a shifter with a bone sticking out where his elow should have been. Wish I had a pic.
A pair of really classy Jr. dragsters out of the Denver area were "Toymanator" and "Toymanator II". and the always popular Nobody Special
"Blood, Sweat & Nitro" "Rain For Rent" "Brute Force" "Blue Max" "Wonder Wagon" "L.A. Hooker" The "Hawaiian" I can't believe no one's mentioned "Swamp Rat"
"Hand Shaker" is Jim Wilkens all steel Willys. Cool car, He was at a Thompson Gasser Reunion a few years back
My brother's 65 Plymouth Hemi Belvedere A990 (factory drag car), campaigned in 1965 as "Lurch" . This was the same time the Adam's Family television show was on....
there is a guy by my old house in Wanatah, Indiana who had an old chevy painted green called the poison apple. Another guy around there was a pig farmer and had some old school rail called "Suicidal Sausage".
