I named mine Big Loaf. I'm really stoked because I found out that BIG LOAF is available as a license plate too. |

My 78 Westy I named Brooke... I wanted something from the year I was born and something that I knew would be at the parts yard if I did nothing... I found her in Brooklyn New York (hence Brooke).... Paid $800 for her... have almost 2 grand into her... and she's ALMOST ready to pass inspection and start the major repairs!! HA HA But when we're done... I hope Brooke and i spend many a night camped next to a flowing mountain stream... or brook. |

How does she look in a skin-tight Fantastic 4 costume?

Dante for mine because I plan to bring him into hell and back on a trip through Central and South America. I've since purchased the flame covered seat covers which makes him look mean...or as mean as a bus can get anyway. The first song I ever played on the car stereo was The Hell Rider by Judas Priest. Hence, Dante - The Hell Rider. _________________ ============================
