57 Custom, that first one is a CLASSIC & worth repeating. The second one, I NEVER heard before! GREAT!
A couple my Grandad used to say in the '30s: He wasn't much for Studebakers, so he referred to 'em as "Stud-breakers." In the mid-'30s, Dodges still said "Dodge Brothers" on the enameled creast above the grille. So one of my Grandad's favorite old saws was to casusally remark the Dodge Brothers stood for: "Dodge the brothers & pick up the sisters!"
I guy was telling me about how fast his 58 Chevy was, but it got lousy gas milage. He said it would pass anything but a gas station...

A fifth under the seat! Love that one. "That car goes like a raped ape." (You can also use "a stripe-assed ape" or "a scalded dog.")

As my father would always tell me when I had engine questions "Speed cost's money. How fast do you want to go?"

"Man, it runs like a Blue Streak!" This car quip caught on after Graham premeired the wildly popular "Blue Streak" in 1932, named for is engine (as early cars often were back then). The engine was made by Continental, which later made the V-12 for the Patton tank and is still in business today, as a division of the mega-group Teledyne.
