How do y'all keep a straight face...

Bob Johnson was the brother of my mom and dads neighbor,
he owes me money, when and where did you see him last?

 

THe"first national bank-progressive insurance" ford pick-up
it's a duel-fuel vehicle,runs on either my gas or my ex-wifes gas

 

El BoRRaChO thinks this is dumb😉

 

Wait 'til they start calling you Al.

 

Too funny.

 

No...

 

The Bob Johnson I know is the owner of the "Bob Johnson 55 nomad"

 

Must be hard up for a thread subject.

 

As long as they don`t call it The Rusty O`Toole Memorial Roadster ha ha ha ha ha

 

I'm doing it right. Legally changing my name to "Chevy Styleline".

 

1952 Vincent motorcycle tank, factory decal.

 

Maybe the owners refer to themselves in third person.

I'd like to show you Joe Shmoe's coupe. Joe thinks it's pretty sweet. Do you want joe to take you for a ride? Buckle up Joe Shmoe likes to drive fast.

 

I see where your coming from, but the way I see it, a fella can call his car whatever he wants. If Joe Schmoe built a coupe and wants to call it the "Joe Schmoe Coupe", I don't lose sleep.

But it is a lot cooler when everyone else starts calling it that first. Joe Schmoe should probably just call it "my coupe".

Im curious as to what Ryan has to say about this..

 

I could name mine The Blowby Special but I think it may lose something in the translation.

 

I think a few others that have posted on this thread are in the same boat as me...
When I started a build thread on my roadster, I just ***led the thread "Malcolm Roadster Build"... well, because that's my nickname and my user name here on the HAMB. Simple as that.

I just call it the roadster. Really, though, I don't care what anyone else calls it. Call it a piece of **** if you want!


Oh, I know a Bob Johnson, too. He has a '54 Ford and a '64 Mercury Marauder.
The "Bob Johnson supercharged Y-block '54 Ford" and "Bob Johnson '64 Mercury Marauder" to be specific.

Malcolm
..or
Nick Hoesing

 

That's OK unless your name is Vincent.

 

Yeah but your name is not really Malcolm so it's ok!

 

Bwaaahhhaaaaaa....nice one

 

Now i do call the old Coupe a girls name.....Flo......but it aint nuttin

 

Close, but not quite. It would become the Deuce Roadster deuce roadster.

I hear people all the time say, "There's that dumb*** wagon." So I guess my name has stuck too.

 

GOOD ONE! Maybe I will name my Chevy II the "wife has my nuts in her purse" special...

 

I refer to my coupe as "The Old Mans Merc" as in reference to the old timmer i bought if off

 

But is it factory paint???

 

ding ding ding ding Speedy Canuck gets it.

Not really, just has always kinda-sorta bugged me. Like, someone else mentioned, a HAMB phenomenon. Sort of a hi-falutin', self important thing. Whatever, doesn't keep me up at nights, just a little irritating. As in, "it's taken me about 10 years to bring it up", kind of minor irritation.

 

So it is OK to call my whatever car White rabbit for instance and not the porknbean mobile. Or I am not supposed to call it anything and let some *** at a show who knows nothing about is background call it whatever he feels like than I tag it?

I am confused.


I did have a guy call one of my cars a POS at a hot dawg stand once, I just smiled because he was right.

 

Call it whatever you want Mr. ******. I'm just saying if you give your own car an "important" ***le, I'll probably think it's a tad snooty. That's all.

 

I guess during my build I might have been guilty of loosely throwing around the term,,The '54 Ranch Wagon" a time or two. HRP

 

waiter....check please...

 

Naw, it's all about the "The"...

 

Bob Johnson"s starting to get upset!
