Had a dodge van once where the e fell off the hood and it was known as the dog. I like dog. When it starts its Good dog, good. When the Ballest resistor shorts out in the rain in the middle of the hood, its BAD DOG BAD!!! DansAm ---

For me, the name “Snidely” seems to fit. I think it’s because the '63 Dart was a thin car like Dudley Do-Right’s mustache. Also, the car seems to have a sinister mystique to it, like Snidely Whiplash. ---

In my presious message, I erroneously wrote the mustache was like Dudley Do-Right’s. As seen in the picture above, I meant to say the Dart reminded me of Snidely Whiplash’s mustache from the Dudley Do-Right cartoon. Sorry for the confusion. ---

I would give it a Stripper’s name, like “Sandy”, “Lisa”, “Alexandra” or “Honey”… After all, it parades around topless. 😉 ---

While in college and working at the hotel at Minnewaska, near New Paltz, New York, my mother received a black dodge dart as a tip for her service. She named it Black Bart the Dodge Dart. She wound up abandoning it on a road trip somewhere in Colorado several years later. ---

Since this vehicle is a small underpowered Chrysler product, it can only be described as a HALF-VAST D500. ---
