Beginning to understand the reasoning behind this car's trunk art. Guess this type of work was the thing back in the day. Found this on eBay when I was browsing some for Olds stuff. Odd Rods by Donruss
Weren't those drawings from the old Car-Toons mag? When I was a kid, the day care provider's husband was a shop manager at a dealership and was deep into building muscle cars for each of his kids. The son was about my age and subscribed to Car-Toons. We had a blast reading those crazy funnies! Good Memories!

Close, but nope.
Odd Rods were pics (& eventually baseball card sized stickers) of individual cars - some based on real cars & some imaginary. They were Ed Roth-ish and usually had exaggerated engines & tires, but always had some sort of monster-sized creature/character.
Car-Toons was a different thing. Kinda like MAD Magazine, but hotrod/car/drag centric and sometimes had factual/info stuff. Usually better, more comic book-like artwork. Although, there was some overlap style-wise.
