Explain your username here --->

For many years my friends as well as coworkers have called me an old cripply dog. So I combined it with chrysler plymouth dodge and came up with cryplydog.
 
I like Mopar. I’m a Dude. Lol. And 318 because that’s what I was building a long time ago when I bought my first car, a 1970 Dart with a slant 6. That was almost 20 year’s ago.
Still have the car, it’s in a 1,000 pieces, everything is done except for paint. LOL
 
Many years ago, when I was in paint and body school, I had to do a graphic stenciling project so I painted a grim reaper on the hood of my car. The little Barracuda was always looking for a Ford or a Chevy it could take away so I thought that was kind of fitting. People started calling my car the Grim Reaper and pretty soon folks began to call the owner and operator Grim Reaper too. It has stuck with me for pretty close to 50 years.
 
My Challenger is the first musclecar era mopar I bought. It's a '72, originally with a Petty blue exterior (currently B5) and a medium blue interior. I needed a username when I first started signing on to Mopar forums and didn't want to use anything too personal and my car was a 72, it was blue and blue, soooo 72bluNblu. I just kept it across all the different forums to keep it simple, even after I bought a bunch of other Mopars.

Always hopeful that my 360 would live up to my username someday. So far not quite there yet. But I am in the quest to achieve it!
 
The name I wanted was taken.
When I was a kid there was movie I believe in German?
It had a monster called the Yimmer my name is Jim and my uncle called me Jimmer it stuck.
 
I bought my car when I was in high school 75 dart. And I am a very addictive type person I
Obsess over stuff that I get interested in. So I become a self proclaimed freak for darts. I had to create an email account for some class in school and I went with [email protected] and it just stuck. Btw I still use that email account lol. It's been over 20 years.

Hungarian Great uncle called me Pishta when I was a baby even though it wasn't my name. Passed soon after that but I made him smile according to my Dad. :(. Pista means something like 'meal' , eg. a grain that had been ground....Weird nickname and most of the time misspelled as phista..

'Pishta' is the diminutiv of 'Stefan' in Slovak. Maybe if Your real first name is Stefan, it would be obvious....

A great number of Hungarians live still in todays Slovakia, because Bratislava was once capital of Hungaria (then called Pozsony).

barbee6043, well thats the original spelling of the Barbee Doll dad invented, that where it comes from, yes just a fact. He actually made 6,043 dolls before he perfected that doll. Sorta like WR 40 and their 40th formula. Dad was not that fast. He was an inventer, invented lots of cool stuff, smart guy, but lost all the $$$$ he made, gone when he decided to get into restoring old cars, that is, the Edsel. Go figure???

The honest answer is Barbee is my last name. That number (6043) came from someone that set up my first computer account, and gave me that handle. Where they got it from I have no idea! Used it since. I have never been a real computer type guy!
 
My brother in-law always called me Tbone before he passed away and I have a 416 Stroker small block in my challenger.
 
I grew up with muscle cars and hot rods in my neighborhood. I am a hotrodder at heart...I like my cars to look stock but run not so much like stock.
After trying to remember how many Mopar's (A,B,C,E bodies) I enjoyed at one time or another, I just stopped counting after 20. So,..HotRod20 it is!
How funny ! this is post #120
