Right after I bought my car I ran out of local people to show her off too so I drove her up the Panhandle of Oklahoma to show her off to my other family of friends. My now dead friend Joe Cates was my first stop. When I pulled up his driveway, at the time the first gravel my car had ever seen, as far as I know, he was sitting on the porch with another friend of mine clasping a Coors Light. Upon parking, Joe walked up and said, " Now THAT is a Silver Bullet" The name has stuck even though it is "corny",,,,but not to me,,,,,I miss you JBC,,,,, and I think of the Silver Bullet as the JBC,,,,cause I never get in her without thinking of my friend!
p.s. I drive it like Joe stole it

Another Christine here. I'll be loafing around in the slow lane, enjoying the fresh air and the sweet sound of a v-8, when suddenly my foot hits the floor, the tires squeal and she rockets down the road. Now what posessed me to do that? 
I just call it the Vette or the Toy.
