I figured it was sort of a carry over name like that.
I'm not planning to do a lot of obvious stuff to it. I just want to make it as nice as possible the way it is. I don't really even want to paint it, although I'll have to see how bad the rust is under the "patch" panels they stuck on there to see how to deal with that. Mainly I just want to make it mechanically sound so my son and I can knock around in it or take stuff to the swap meet once in awhile.
I was thinking I'd like to have it lettered up to look like it was on there since new with the name of my grandad's car lots he had from the 30's to the 70's in Colorado Springs, but I'd have to find someone that gets what I want to do, and it would have to be pretty unobtrusive. I know some of the rat rod crowd gets old looking sign painting done, so I'll kind of watch for that. That's my biggest "modification" plan.
