I was just going over my iTunes Smart Playlist with Comments containing - ode to automobiles - so I could have a humorous trip:Big Machine - 1960 - Gene Savage - "A humorous story about his army M60 tank, that he's very proud of which describes the singer's efforts to make an M-60 tank into a hot rod. Sometimes I think he's talking about his manhood. Ode to automobiles" - So-Cal Speed Shop's Hot Rod A music collector from Portland, Oregon 97214

The other side of this record is a great country weeper called "Let's Take A Lok". Big West was a San Fransisco based label owned by local Northern California country music personality Black Jack Wayne.

I haven't heard this in 40 years. I had the record when I was about 11 ('71, '72). I even remember the "big west" green label. What me and my brother and friends thought back then was, that it's a rip-off of commander cody's "Hot Rod Lincoln".

Don't ask me why, but everytime I hear this song Hugh Jackman comes to mind as a tough guy singing this song while he drives some kind of big machine and smoking a big cigar. Just wering jeans and a dirty west.
