I am giving away a piece of my art to whoever comes up with the best name for my new wagon (below). Winner can choose from my existing art, or I can do a custom piece.

Here's the wagon, 1970 XY Ford Falcon (Aussie made):

The wagon will be given a tiki makeover, and I want to christen it with a cool nose art/pinup style name (that is tiki related). A few I have considered are "Blacktop Surfer","Tiki Wagon". Hint - I dig names that play on words like "Lucy Equipment","Miss Behavin" etc. and obviously I would like it to be tiki related.

Make as many suggestions as you like. I will give it a month or so before I pick a winner. Good luck.


Everyone laughs at me because I am different. I laugh at everyone else because they are all the same.

Tonga Waggin' (tongue wagon)
Your art could have a tiki with his head out the window with his tongue waggin' in the wind. Although I am sure somebody will some how convert this name to a sexual inuendo, but what are you gonna do?
Good luck with the name and fixin' up the ride. What is the actual name of the wagon, who made it and what year?

how about the Shaggin' Waggon..?

I think it would be cute to name it "Todd" if it is a boy car, or "Shannon" if it is a girl car.

Wait a minute!
Is this what your leaning toward?
(Just to save us any time) :)

Go Kustom Kahuna/Kahoona!

Ive got a shortlist in my head. That is on there, but there is some stiff competition against it too. What I like tends to change every time i read through the list, so there is no clear "leader" at this stage.

There is till plenty of time to get your entries in!
