Russ, I enjoy your music analogies.  The psychology of art and music is not often discussed, but its always interesting.

Here's one from Shorpy for the gas pump guys, Chuck and Craig and all the rest of us who are into signs. I suspect some of these signs are actually performing a structural function, holding up the building. Photo taken in Gordonton, North Carolina in 1939 by Dorothea Lange. All that's missing is a set of antlers... ;)

Looks like that Fiat could use a mower attachment too as well...  ;D

Since we're on the subject of oddball Fiats, here are a couple more...

The ground effects fiat is classic...was it the McLaren CAN-AM cars that had that type of a set-up?

It was Jim Hall's Chaparral that was the "sucker" Can Am car

So what is really going on with that Fiat fan car?
