Installed in the early 1970's....these stickers are under the hood of my '68 Fastback. . Never wanted to complicate the exterior of my car.

I love those Autolite stickers with the GT-40.  I thought somebody was making a reproduction of those; anybody know?

Wasn't "Ram Rod" the trade name for Hurst's vertical gate shifter?

I still have unused stickers from the 60s and 70s, including "rat fink" monster type stickers they used to sell at the corner drug store.

. I did some google searching tonight and it looks like Fenton had a Torq-thrush knockoff wheel called the Ram Rod about that era.

I can't believe you googled Ram Rod and got anything car related!!

LOL, you're right, there were many more hits that weren't related to that sticker. I thought I'd spare everyone the details.

That is awesome, from the stickers right down to the Cragar Super Tricks.  Let's hope it never needs paint!

Thanks, Original paint car. 68 1/2 CJ even more stickers on the other side. Blair Patrick is building a stocker engine for it. Was the Mile High Nationals champs in 1989. In Fl now and trying to keep it as is. Has some old school stickers on it.

Yes, a real cool CJ! It does look period correct as today I don't see many S or SS cars with those oval NHRA event stickers. Nice paint color too....at least what we can see of it LOL! Hey, you should post up the engine details when the new monster is ready.

This is on the windshield of the 66 T-Bird that I bought earlier this year.  Car was supposed to have been brought up to Canada from California about 10 years ago.  I guess whoever owned it down there was a bit of a hot rodder, and maybe had friends or family that he crewed for ...
