I have to agree with POP POP and CHRIS WATTON. Rocket 88 is a great number. A few more suggestions,
Eddie Shaw - Highway 61
JB Hutto - JB's Boogie
9 Below Zero - One Way Street
George Thorogood - In the Night Time
If you're and old rock and roller like me, I recently bought a CD called Cadillac Cuties & Hot Rod Heroes. 50 songs all about cars. Well worth a tenner

You have to try Jo Jo Zep and the Falcons "Shape I'm in." Let us know what you think.

Is that an old rockabilly number?

I've only heard the one version so I don't think so, I doubt it ever reached UK so it is a bit unusual. Don't get it confused with " The shape I'm in" by The Band, different song.

Beep Beep
by the Playmates

Kind of an anti TVR song in that a Nash Rambler is faster than a Cadillac.

Type it in on youtube--you'll get a good laugh and its maybe 2.5 minutes long.
