so i've had this body on my work bench almost a year now, trying to come up with the perfect name for it so i can get a fire under me to start it. hopefully you guys can give me a hand to get me started.

My current name for it, that i'm liking more and more is "Silent Scream" and anyone who was in there 20's in1988 and had big hair better know where that name comes from.

if you are not from that time period, Silent Scream was a Anti Abortion video that came out in 1984 then the metal band Slayer made a song about the same thing. and being that ford killed Edsel right from the start it fits. but want some input or other possible ideas.

some of my other ideas that i shot down were
"prom night dumpster baby"
never finalized into a name but something to do with "lemon"
or taking the amt's edsel funny car name of "unreal"




Note: not my pic, just too lazy to go take a picture of a unstarted resin body for this thread, but its the same car

To me that sounds a little morbid. I have used song titles and so many to choose from like Thunderstruck and Mental Health just some ideas...
