Names you say? So, it's a klunker, but also a hauler.

"Klunk in da Trunk"

"Bringin' the Klunk" ~take off on lyrics by George Clinton the funkmaster

Yeah! This is what i hoped… thanks!!! On a historical note… I “followed” George Clinton at a gig once…. Evil Olive… i was basically in, what looks like to me now, like a “Sexual Chocolate” cover band…. Also very klunky….. So the connection is apt and i much appreciate you

 

[Uncle Ookie]

"The Klunkmaster General"?

Also very appreciated and under consideration as well! Thanks for your entry
