Cool! Brought me back a few years. How about these?

One of my favorite songs when I was in grade-school - Stick Shift by The Duals: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DaVY07-fJI0

And probably my all-time favorite car song - Hot Rod Lincoln by Charlie Ryan: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0yqU8Q8888

Remember Chevy Shut Down by The Jaguars? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BnAhxlLYuRY

I was also a huge Jan & Dean fan when I was young. A few of my favorites -

Dead Man's Curve: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukunx21UHCA

3-Window Coupe: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRmOR2UhpNk

My Mighty G.T.O.: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGpZ_4G9Wsk

Hot Stocker: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vvShC7G5f4

Can't forget Schlock Rod parts 1 & 2:

Thanks for the links. Hmm...what if they brought out songs like these today? Would be kinda silly.

LOL! Probably! Then again - pretty much every generation has music that they would consider to be a bit on the silly side later in life. Hey - at least we've got surfer/hot-rod music. Could be much worse. Be glad that we're not the disco generation!

My favorite of all the early rock is Doo Wop. I still love listening to it. The PBS Doo Wop specials about 10 years ago were excellent. Doo Wop 50, Doo Wop 51, and Rock, Rhythm, and Doo Wop. They got the most popular of the old Doo Wop bands back together for live concerts. It was absolutely amazing to see those singers - many in their 70s and older - still able to hit the harmonies just like they did 50 years earlier.
