We helped Frances get her car operational 1 day before she went off the Cornell.
But the car really needs a name.

914E (an ode to the 1976 silver anniversary Porsche 912, this being the golden anniversary of Frances' 914).

Or how about "Evie" (because it's a 914EV)?

She should call it "Little Red" as a play on Cornell being "Big Red."

How about Elsa. Elsa Lanchester played the bride in The Bride of Frankenstein. The bride didn’t have a name not even in the book.

I think it might be best coming from her.
And congrats to her for all she’s done and a bright future. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

"Eve-Ah" from WALL-E comes to mind for some reason - my addled brain short circuiting again, no doubt! But yea, Frances should decide...

Congratulations Frances! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

No brilliant suggestions for a name.

I never really cared for Red or White on a car, but this combo just knocks it out of the park.

Cherry Bomb

or just Cherry if the 'bomb' is too reminiscent of a blown engine. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

I am just sad that she probably won't bring it up here with her to college. I would love to see it.

Definitely not an east coast college car but I’m happy to see it’s finished. I imagine there’s a video coming out soon.
