That song is overplayed, but damn if that isn't a sick car. A Model A with a Zephyr Flathead V12 would be amazing. I seem to recall a guy actually building one a few years backs and had it in Hot Rod Mag.
Haulass Hyena by the Cramps
I've never been sure if they meant the Lancia Hyena or if Hyena was the name of some hot rod.

Well said! For understandably personal reasons this is my favorite. \m/
"Jerry was a race car driver
And he drove so goddamn fast
He never did win no checkered flag
But he never did come in last.."
With a Bocephus sticker
On his 442 he'd light 'em up
Just for fun
@Brett Murphy I thought of the Cramps "Sado County Auto Show" but Bitchin Camaro by the Dead Milkman is just silly fun so I went with that.
"Fast Cars" by the Buzzcocks is another good one.

I was going to say Bitchin' Camaro (because I have one and love that song). Fast cars is good.
Speaking of cars...
"Beep Beep" by The Playmates
That song about a Rambler beating a Caddy, totally GRM
L-O-L-A.... Lola.
A project car classic...
I'm not much of a country fan, especially pop-country, but this gets stuck in my head -
One of my favorite stoner-rock songs. Clutch in general makes great car references.
A rap song with some very specific and knowledgeable lyrics
Because everybody loves their Jeeps and
And for those who feel a little differently about their car
Maybe not directly about cars, but ZZ Top's I'm Bad, I'm Nationwide comes to mind.
Speaking of Clutch...
Their song Crucial Velocity is especially vehicular.
Love those guys.
Glad to see a post about Charlie Ryan, his was the real Hot Rod Lincoln, and it really does (the car still exists) have a Lincoln V12. Here are some more:
Rocket 88
Dead Man's Curve
Little GTO
Kleine GTI
Fun, Fun, Fun
Hey, Little Cobra
Maybellene
No Particular Place to Go
Bob Seger, Detroit Made about Buick 225 or sometimes referred to as a Deuce and a Quarter
