Ok while not you average Camero,Nova,Mustang or Chevelle project I started on a family type of Pro-touring type car.I don't know wether or not to call it the pro-tour-more-door or the Incredible Hulk.

I've been leaning towards the Incredible Hulk because it's Big/Green and running a big block FE for a motor.I have been working on the frame and suspension, plan is to replace all bushings with poly, up-grade the brakes to discs all around, run air-ride for a lowered stance and 17" or 18" wheels an tires.Body will be mild wth shaved doors,some shaved trim and new paint. Here are some pics of where I'm at right now.

The red car is my 66 Galaxie Sedan that will eventually get a Crown Vic running gear with a mod motor.

I'll chime in her and say I personally like "Pro-tour More-door". Keep up the good work!

i like "mordor" or "hulk" but my preference is Mordor. from your "more dors"... and the JJR Tolkien's land of evil, and dwelling place fo lord sauron...

Thats not a spacestation it's a Galaxie:lol: actually the more I hear it I am thinking Project Mordor, I just like the way it sounds.

This project just got a whole lot slower as I was let go from my job today after 10 years, I was told due to the economy even though I was told by one of the VP's of sales that come March he didn't know how we were going to do it,it's suppose to get that busy.

wow that sucks! im sorry to hear, re-apply in march if nothing else comes along in the mean time.... could be that the VP´s and middle manegement arent comunicating optimally... its been heard of..

I've always said that sooner or later the car will let you know what it's name is. Mine got tagged 'The Bucket' due to all the parts laying around during the rebuild. It'll come to you sooner or later.

If your wife is going to be the main owner/employee, I would suggest using something with her name in it. It may seem kind of boring and not as catchy as some of the suggestions- I really like its accrual World but the reality is people will be buying her and her services and the company should be named as such.

... or If your target market is the adult industry you can't go wrong with Dividends in Arrears.
