>How many other people name their Spitfires?
doesn't everyone? my license plate is SPIT BOY, originally what my wife
called me when I was shopping for my car two years ago, but subsequently I
think the name belongs to the car more than me
>How does one determine the gender?
I've always assumed that late cars with bumper overriders or full rubber
bumpers must be female since other listers call these boobs, but since SPIT
BOY has them, I've just said he has gynecomastia (probably due to estrogen
treatment for the prostate cancer)
>Does naming a car improve performance & reliability?
(snip)
well, I believe it's Jan Burdekin whose TR6 is named Sybill and I think the
multiple personality implication says it all for LBCs- but I'm fairly
certain that one is more likely to be able to have a relationship of mutual
trust with your Triumph than with your wife's cat
Oakton Community College LBC show next Sunday, I think, don't miss it if
you're in northern Illinois or Indiana or southern Wisconsin
best wishes
