if you really look in the far far back of Slayer's Reign in Blood album cover there's a death rod with dp90 and red wheels...

2 more I can think of are Marty Robbins with his stock car on the cover and the Creedence album with the truck.
Oh, and Jan & Dean Drag City.

Love the shot of Tony Nancy's 22jr. I carved a wooden model of that car when I was a kid. Rubber band powered! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Here's a neat old cover from New Zealand. This picture is from their original album from 1960, and repeated on their greatest hits CD.

I did this cover for Lead News custom magazine issue #2 back in 1991, featuring several neat record covers on the front and back cover (very primitive compared to the magazine of today).
