Over to the left, right under my avatar, it now says that I am a Shelby GT500 Member, since I just made my 2500th post. That's great and all, but here's the thing... my '05 Mustang has been modded to reflect the Shelby GT350's of old, as most of you know. So I don't want to be a Shelby GT500 member. Maybe it's my perfectionist nature, but I have the whole GT350 thing going. My personalized license plate even says 05GT350.

Now, you aren't supposed to give yourself a nickname. Someone else has to give it to you, or so I have heard. Plus, I can't think of one anyway. So, I'm requesting the help of creative TMS members who have known me for a while now to help me out here. Help name me! :worship:

I'll pick one that I like and talk to Brad about what I have to do to get him to change my name under my avatar. Have a little fun with it... but for anyone I have offended, this is not an opportunity to get back at me.

Ok since normally if a person request a Custom Title, I usually twist it around to where its not to their taste. In this case, i'll let people give idea's for Ian one, but... and thats a catch, BUT we can change it around some as we see fit.

Ian, I hate to say it, but I think you are setting yourself up for some comedy gold in this one.

I pretty much figured that much. You know, I like the fun threads though. And this one should be fun...

Ouch...

By the way, to save bandwidth and so I don't have to start another thread (as well as possibly give adrenalin a reason to keep this in the '05 section ), I'll report here that I am officially taking my car off of the market today. I can keep her afterall, as well as build the house. Gonna be a little tougher... but it will happen. Just want to thank everyone who offered to help, and apologize for not being able to give my car to someone for fifty bucks. It was a nice thought though.

"GT500? Not even close"

"The ladies all think I'm a GT500. Boy, do I have them fooled."

"I measured and didn't quiet make it to GT500."

Thanks, Scott. And thanks everyone for the laughs.

And for the ladies reading this... I picked the GT350 because my dad actually used to own an original '66 Shelby GT350. It has nothing to do with my manhood. B)
