oh, darn, thought you had a Soobie 2.2 engine in that 2POINT2 one.
a couple of names I have given girlfriend's cars........
'Goldilocks' for a 98 Subaru Outback with rinestone studed gold rear license
plate frame.
And 'Bubblitious' for one of those very roundy and 'oval everywhere' (
bubble shapped ) Ford Taurus station wagons, now thankfully move on from.

here's another one for my 1972 Airstream 32 foot trailer - Airstream evolves
to Airship, which is derived from EarthShip homes in New Mexico, which then
becomes PalShip as a freind of mine sort of is/was a Pal around the time
I/we got it. So PalShip.

All of my vehicles get a name, and those names are often given by my mom.
(She usually sees them in her driveway for extended periods, while major
maintence goes on. I did not get my own driveway until relatively recently.)
She came up with Bluebell for my first Vanagon - an '84 two-tone blue
edition, then Marigold, for the '76 loaf, and Butternut, for my current '85
tan van. Butternut has a Michigan vanity plate of "2POINT2" in the rear, and
a plate of my own making on the front with a painted picture of a butternut
squash, and lettering spelling out her name. The "real" liscence plate is
for the big-bore 2.1 that will be going in her in the spring.

Hey y'all-
Finally going to register Blackbeard in Nevada.
Finally.
Have chosen to go the personalized plate route, and believe it or not there
are some GREAT plates still available!
I'm having a hard time choosing, so I thought I'd throw 'em out to
the
trusty list.
(Note: I am a tried and true WSU Cougar, and Blackbeard has the WSU coug
head logo prominently displayed on the rear window)
Also, if you have any ideas not represented, throw 'em my way! I'm open
to
suggestions!
