Crazy slogans painted on the back of drag cars!

Funny,

But what kind of thought goes into deciding to go to school for 10 years to work on buttholes for a living?

 

a customer of mine has "no balls ...no glory"

my old bbc anglia had " lifes too short to drive a wimpy car" and the plate said "takes 2"

another customer had a 440 6pak road runner ....it said "better to burn out , then to fade away"

my old pretty penny anglia says .... "its all about time & money"

real race cars have 5 doors ....old drag malibu wagon

real race cars have no doors.... a buddy's dragster

a couple of my hot rods and a buddys had .... "exhaust fumes kill !"

We had a signature eyeball painting made by our pinstriper with very red eyes as he was hangover when he painted our Pro stock Olds. Also had "Gone chasin Daihatsu dealers, back in 7 seconds" on our comp altered back in the eighties. On another comp altered we had famous pornstars as crew members. Great thread

 

I think on the back of my '40 Plymouth gasser I'll put "You got passed by junkyard parts" or "Nose High, Foot Down...and Gone."

 

I've got pictures of a couple, I'll try to find them later.

On the back of a chopped, big tired, blown bigblock 53 Chevy pickup.
"Unique is what we seek, Bizarre is what we are"

On the back of a blown bigblock 40 Willys.
"Real Hot Rods ride on trailers, get over it crybabies."

 

my theme for y 49 chevy is a funeral home coupe. on the doors it will say "tinys used casket salvage, 1-800-dead-box" and on the decklid will be "you bury em we carry em"

 

A local ledgend back in the 60's was Tom Tarrant. He and his wife at the time used to match race two blown early vettes.

He later graduated to an A/S 426 wedge Plymouth and had a 289 cobra that was an AHRA record holder.

Toms family owned Tarrant Masonry Contractors. The Plymouth, in huge letters on the sides was the MORTAR FORKER II. I always thought that was a great name.

 

the other day i saw one that said "i think my shadows trying to kill me" i sopose that is a good reason to try to out run it

 

I had a yellow big block 69 chevelle ss that read: If you can't cut the mustard...don't try to ketchup!

 

Something screwed up in your post. The pictures aren't showing up!

 

After rolling my coupe, the body was in primer for a while. The trunklid had "Hog Mountain mental health activity vehicle". On the roof, "This side up". PA announcers loved it.

 

A buddy in high school had a Buick GS drag car that said, "The bullshit stops when the green flag drops!" on the decklid.

Not a cool race car, but my parts chaser pickup has a little logo I did of a clock w/wrench hands on the doors that says "Free Time Auto & Cycle Salvage - You Break 'Em, We Take 'Em".

 

My friends old 39 tudor said this

 

The Hurst Hairy Olds the decklid said "4-4-2 MUCH",I know theres a bunch more out there awesome thread!

 

my favorite on a friends super comp dragster "If you can't race it or take it to bed it aint worth having"

 

I have a picture of it somewhere but on the back a Division 1 Super Stocker...

"I spent most of my money on Race Cars, Booze and Women....the rest I just wasted."

 

In the early seventies I remember a funny car that had " FUCK NIXON " on the back of it, the x was a swastika!Civil disobediance at it's best!

 

not a race car, but...

my friend Mel Koonse (rip) sold and installed venetian blinds back in the early '50s in the days before you went to wally world and bought them off the shelf. on the trunk lid of his '48 chevy sedan he had a sign painter letter "A BLIND MAN DRIVES THIS CAR"

 

Had a friend in High School with a piece of junk 70 Nova with a big blue bottle in it. He had lettered on the back..... "junk runs"

 

"HONK IF PARTS FALL OFF!"

I had that on one of mine for a while.

 

baack in the 70s I went to so-cal from Oregon to meet up with the chevelle guys there..we were lucky enough to hit VanNuys on a wednesday nite in the super shops parking lot was a 64/65 chevelle wagon with a snorkel hood scoop and on the bottom of the tailgate it said in about 2 inch letters FUCK YOU ITS FAST...YA GOTTA LOVE THAT

 

One freaking fast Nova here had a towhook assembled, and text with MoPar pentastar logo above the hook stated "If you need help"

 

Dirt track car in northeastern Oklahoma had: "Don't drive faster than your angel can fly"

 

Dave, I had "this side up" with a big arrow on the dash in a dirt car one season. Either i wasn't paying attention, or it just didn't help to remind me. lol

A friend of a friend has this on the back of his Semi...."Load it like a railcar, drive it like a racecar"

 

I plan to do as 4 cyl. racer after retirement called "Half Fast" just to hear the announcer.

 

A friend of mine, Duster Dan has "All Bottle, no Throttle" on the back of his 10 second Duster

 

I think this was painted on the back edge of the wing on one of Richard Tharp's Top Fuel cars some years ago;

"A Saint I Ain't...A Star I Are!"
