I had a 69 named "Swervy" because the swing lever arm bushing of the
steering was so worn.  Even when I fixed it the name stuck.
 "Faith" because faith got us there when reason suggested otherwise.
"Shanty Mama" from the Jonathan Edwards song, "Lay around the shanty,
mama and get a good buzz on."
"Rusty"...well, maybe that's obvious, but one of the orange Vanagon
Westys, really wasn't all that rusty.

Waiting for a name even now on my new '80 Westy.
