Well you got a CS series on it... and it is a shocker....

So how about "Center Shock"

i dunno what you might have to do about the trademark though

Awesome stuff. Time to put on some flame throwers and full hydraulics for the suspension. Fantastic.

Which one, specifically - the one on two (or four, depending on the time of the day) legs or the one on four wheels?

As for names, I have a very unoriginal suggestion which nevertheless describes this monster very aptly - Fire'n ICE ?

How about JBL Monroe! For 'tis just the kind of wild ride the wild woman of yesteryears loved to be seen in!

Godspeed,

Sounds good - just call her 'Marilyn'. Simple and to the point.

Or pick up any famous lady's name (except JJ, Sam!).

Sam Kapasi · 30th October 2006, 16:56

lol@steeroid

The thing is, JBL already has done a Marilyn Monroe car, called the Hollywood Honey and that would not be original. Fire N' ICE is funny, but not everyone would get it.

That is something I would have never let anyone do to my car, but on someone else's car, its cool. Both the design and the workmanship are great.
With those huge speakers, I guess you just need to shift the balance to the left speakers and the car would veer to the right.
Amazing work Sam. What's your next project?

hydrashok · 30th October 2006, 18:38

That's one smokin' ride! (Literally too, as long as the smoke machine stays there, heh, heh). Sam, I can't believe you made her shine like that with just collin and some old cloth!

Names for the car:
Freya
Aphrodite
Siren (In greek mythology, sirens were beautiful women who lured sailors and mesmerised them with their song--and made them do things the didn't want to do)
Calliope (One of the nine greek goddesses - also called muses - of music)

haba haba haba....thts one piece of art
only thing missing in it is hydraulic suspension and making it dance to the beats

then it would be really pimped up

Sam Kapasi · 30th October 2006, 18:58

Siren. I like Siren.

The JBL Siren. That sounds pretty hot. Another one to add to my list.

And guys.... I am not going to call the car Umrao Jaan under any circumcisions.

danlalan · 30th October 2006, 20:06

well the car looked really cool yesterday...had a nice shine to it too....but we missed the JBL palio...wht happened to it???

Sam, I almost forgot!
How about calling her the JBL MELODY???

ballkey · 31st October 2006, 12:33

No Monroe? How about Brangelina?
'JBL Jolie!' has a nice ring to it.

The Eyeballer was disbanded and put to rest. It lasted 2.5 years and did some extensive touring in the country. The point was made and then we put her to rest
