Default I'm renaming my ruby
Hey friends,My wife was reading the threads that I started about my 84 Vette and started crying and told me that if she knew the history behind it that she would have MADE me get it years ago,(what a woman)Any way I've always called her Ruby, but, there are about a million cars here named Ruby,So, I've asked my wife what name should I give the car and she came up with the name "Destiny" because she said that after all these years that it was my destiny to own her.So Her name is now DESTINY.

If the two of you were to conceive an offspring in the car (this in NOT easy to do in a C4) would you name it "destiny's child"?

Do a search on Ward and read the posts he has started about wanting to by a vette
Might explain the comment some.

He seems to be having a problem being "allowed" to buy and own a vette (a family member seems to have a problem with it ).

I LOVE the Destiny name for the vette!!!!!!!
