<VV> Car names--some Corvair

[Jim Houston]

The guy I purchased my '65 Monza from called it "Goldie" due to the Gold 
paint ...  however, after a year of discovering several little "things" 
(such as a steering column/shaft that had been EXTENDED 8"!!), I now 
call the car "FrankenVair"...

>  Anti Christine, my older '68, got its name because it was a low-mileage car that self destructs as I try to restore it...just the opposite of the movie.
