Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen went top 10 in 1972 with “Hot Rod Lincoln” and the unforgettable lyrics, “You’re gonna’ drive me to drinkin’ if you don’t quit drivin’ that Hot Rod Lincoln.” However, the album it’s on, “Lost in the Ozone,” is worth no more than $15.00. Earlier versions can put more gas in your tank. Johnny Bond’s EP, “Hot Rod Lincoln,” released on Republic Records in 1960 is worth up to $100.00. Charlie Ryan’s album, “Hot Rod,” containing his version of “Hot Rod Lincoln” and released on King Records in 1961, can get you $200.00 today.
