Patty Anne – Part 9 (and Final Entry) of Why People Name Their Cars After Women
Patty Anne is a 1987 Lincoln I inherited from my mother in 2017. She is a qualified land yacht and rides like one. Totally original and in fantastic shape, I enjoyed driving around in her, but I never had any real attachment to the car. She’s a little too new for me. So she now resides with a fellow Packard member in Indiana. I still hear about her from time to time from Packard members: “I saw your mother’s car the other day.” I think Mom would be happy to know that the current owner really loves her and enjoys her.
So as they say, “That’s my story, sad but true.” I name my antique cars after those I purchase them from for my own reasons. Every one was and is special to me. So guys, next time you are around your cars, think, “Should I name them or not?”
