part 61 D-Con
i came up with another name for my car, but we never got around to puttin it on. i guess we were always either to busy racin or gettin ready to race, it just never happened. but T.J. had it all planned out & even drew a hand painted picture of it, which still hangs in my moms house today. i'll send a pic. when you look, check out the fine detail. she hand painted each & every decal. the name i chose was D-Con. we lived in a trailer house which from time to time was home to mice. we put out traps & even tried d-con once. it worked, but the dead mouse would eventally cause a "stank ", & would have to be dealt with. i noticed on the d-con box it said someting like, kills rats & mice. i imediately related rats to bbc motors & mice to sbc motors. & since chevys were our main competition, the name just seemed to fit perfectly. i'd planned to put, in smaller letters below the name some where, the words, " rat & mouse killer ". who knows, maybe some day i'll still get a chance to use the name. stranger things have happened.
