little sayings on the back of drag cars.

I distinctly remember a car with, "Mothers Worry" on the back.

 

And she cruised Telegraph and Gratoit for what I was told

 

My 65 Mustang back in 72 "If it smells good eat it" My fathers partners 67 big block Chevelle "TOO BAD" My falcon The "Last Waltz"

 

my dads full frame tubbed out (31x21.50's) street legal 67 nova sez

"too fat to fly" ...it's a lil inside joke as it has a very healty 468 BIG BLOCK...

 

The blonde girl in the Vette had a racing stripe landing strip......at least the one in our area.

 

Okay i know it's not on the back but i really like it.

 

My 71 charger R/T I had in High school had "Talks cheap, Let's race" written on the trunk. It was there when I bought it.

"Don't laugh mom, your daughter may be in the back seat!"
Normbc9

My OT '66 is going to say "My other car is fun, but this one's a DRAG..." (Or something of that nature.)

 

This story was going around the Minneapolis-St.Paul area in the early 70's. Of course, nobody ever actually saw the girl or the car ... the guy telling the story always heard it from his barber's cousin's brother-in-law's dry cleaner.

"ban low performance drivers...not high performance cars"

 

Hey Winder... I've heard that they had a hard time selling Novas in Mexico because in Spanish "No va" means "Won't go".



I've seen "Tempus Fugit" on the door of a race car (Latin for "Time Flies")

And the classic "Speed Costs Money - How Fa$t Do You Want To Go?"

 

In the late 60's, at Avilla Motor Speedway, in northern Indiana there was a yellow Falcon Gasser that had "You'll Wonder Where the Yellow Went" from the old Pepsodent commercials.

About the same time I was running a '69 SC/Rambler with "Beep, Beep My Ass" on the back window.

 

On my OT (68 camaro) high school car I had "well you gave it your best, mabey next time" on the back in pin stripe.

 

After some guy corrected me here the other day about my car being an Anglia and not an Austin, I decided to go see the sign guy and have him add this:

 

I've seen "AMF" on the back of a few. We all know what that means haha post #5 badman 55 chevy says it on this thread http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=246284&showall=1

 

'Takin Care of Business' on the back of mine. peace

 

Nascar Pontiac back in the '60's had "BBARC" Big bad ass race car.

 

Tony Pizzi's early Z-28 stocker had "Only The Strong Survive" across the rear spoiler.
