Greg, the information you're providing here is priceless. I cannot thank you enough. So tell me.....i'm not good on all those dots and dashes...lol....how do you pronounce the car's name and what does it mean?
I am glad you can get some use of it Rusty, Hopefully you find it fun and informative.
Here is some more information:
I some times name my projects..
The name for this one has a multi-faceted implication...
First the car is green, and it was in pretty bad shape when I started working on it ... bad as in no guts, drove/stopped like a 1960's American car, Needed rust repair and general TLC.
Also the Name is homage to arguably the most difficult road courses in the world - the 12.9 mile long Nordschliffe - AKA the Nürburgring in Germany. The track winds seemingly endlessly through the Eifel Mountains in Western Germany. If you have ever wanted the rush of driving your car legally at the limit on possibly the most exciting and punishing lap, I suggest buying a few laps and participating in the Touristenfahrten. Essentially the 'Ring is a public toll road as well as a world renown racetrack. Sir Jackie Steward named it the Green Hell. Grüne Hölle means Green Hell in German.
those dots are umlats and in German they change the sound or pronunciation of the vowels.
