November 3, 200420 yr comment_100584 I'm kinda late to this thread but here goes:SER240Z comes from my friend and I when we first signed up for an AOL account. At the time the internet had just come out and we signed up together. He had a 92 SE-R and I had the 240Z. Since then I have aquired a 02 SE-R and still have the Z so I just keep using the name. I also got custody over the AOL account so it's still my e-mail address. I don't know how I'm going to add the Roadster to that though.Scott Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/5093-screen-names-where-do-they-come-from/?&page=8#findComment-100584 Share on other sites More sharing options...
November 18, 200420 yr comment_102299 Gee, guess I don't have a story. I used my real name. I was around before the 240Z club, and everyone on IZCC knew me by bpilati, so I never changed it. Yall should ask Mike about the start of this club, and how it happened.

November 28, 200420 yr comment_103476 I was waffling over whether to buy a Z or not for the longest time. The deal was, if I bought a Z car, I'd have to sell my street bike to pay for the Z. Being a life long motorcyclist, I've been going back and forth on this forever. Finally decided to buy the car (yesterday!) and now have to sell the Ducati. I'll see how long I can drag that out. Maybe my wife will forget about it and I'll get to keep it. Hence the name seemed to fit. -Ed Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/5093-screen-names-where-do-they-come-from/?&page=8#findComment-103476 Share on other sites More sharing options...
November 29, 200420 yr comment_103510 A Sandgroper is an "endearing" name given by Australians to those that live in Western Australia, it is a pet name given to the Mole Cricket which has shovel like front claws and lives under the sand, hence Sandroper. I have no idea when this tag was given to West Aussies but if you say your'e a Sandgroper most Aussies will know where you're from, here endeth the entomology lesson.

November 29, 200420 yr comment_103530 Mine is a difficult one. A long time ago... in a galaxy far, far away....There was this couple who decided to give me a name after their best friend....

November 29, 200420 yr comment_103559 mine is pretty simple to understand after I added an aftermarket gnose to a restored 240Z. License tag reads that too. I do have people in our local club calling me "poppa", as in poppa-gnoze. My earlier screen name was 3L240z but I'm up to the 3.2L version now...

November 29, 200420 yr comment_103575 I am caught in a real dilemma. Should I change my screen name, or do you all know what I am talking about?

November 29, 200420 yr comment_103578 I am caught in a real dilemma. Should I change my screen name, or do you all know what I am talking about?I vote YES! It should be 26th-Z/27th-Z or something like that. Combo of both Z's..................or your favorite "Asian Twins" but that doesn't let others know of your low vins except in your signature.Vicky Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/5093-screen-names-where-do-they-come-from/?&page=8#findComment-103578 Share on other sites More sharing options...
