No, but I remember when we all gave our vehicle a name which was usually painted just behind the front wheel well. Mine was BIG I-RON. Iron was a play on my name obviously.

Here goes Bill. Briggs Cunningham, in 1951, had them painted on his stable of race cars. It made identifying his cars on the race track easier. They were 2 parallel blue stripes running down the center of the car from front to back. Now, do I win a free shock rebuild? Surely a prompt answer is worth that! Dennis/Arkansas
