Chuck.......don't know about the project car, but I think the USS Wankel is
one of the best race car names I've heard.  Jerry in Dallas (Angst & Folly

  List,

     I've had this little red project car sitting in the yard for a month now
  and just realized it has no name.  I was thinking of calling it "Hot
  Diggity" since it's red, and since that's a fairly common thing to hear
  someone say in these parts. (really!)  Anybody know of another LSR vehicle
  using that name?  I've done my web searches and have only hit on one
  automotive reference, and that was on a collectors card of some sort.
  Wouldn't surprise me if Ed Roth had built a custom car by that name.

     I'd better hurry up and come up with something before I get stuck with
  another car named by my friends.  That's what happened with the USS Wankel.
  There's gotto be a name better than my wifes favorite; "that piece of
junk".
  She calls all my cars that anyway, but I think the car deserves something
  with just a bit more dignity.
