Geez, Frampton, leave a lot to the imagination what your mind is on..
The skunk logos I understood (Lockheed skunk works), but the rat in the tin can flew over my head. I like the ejector seat warnings on the t-tops though. to each his own, lotta work went into that, either lotta wheel spin or lotta clutch slip getting 12k+ rpm into a useable trans / rear end ratio.
