(21,787 posts)refers to the souped-up version of the 1932 Ford Coupe (deuce meaning 2, for the year in the 1930s)
BTW, the "pink slip" in the lyrics means the ownership title to the car, which for California vehicles, was issued on pink paper.

(12,157 posts)As I was motivatin' over the hill
I saw Maybellene in a Coupe DeVille
A Cadillac a-rollin' on the open road
Nothin' will outrun my V8 Ford
The Cadillac doin' 'bout ninety-five
She's bumper to bumper rollin' side by side
TexasProgresive
(12,157 posts)I bought a brand-new air-mobile
It custom-made, 'twas a Flight De Ville
With a pow'ful motor and some hideaway wings
Push in on the button and you can hear her sing

Jackie Brenston is credited but it was Ike Turners band. Recorded at Sun Studios in Memphis. They have a nice display about it in the little museum there.

(27,802 posts)I was cruising in my Sting Ray late one night
When an XKE came up on the right
He rolled down the window of his shiny new Jag
And challenged me then and there to a drag
I said "You're on, buddy, my mill's running fine
Let's come of the line now at Sunset & Vine
But I'll go you one better if you've got the nerve
Let's race all the way...to Dead Man's Curve"

(Surf City, here we come)
You know it's not very cherry, it's an oldie but a goodie

Well, it ain't got a back seat or a rear window
But it still gets me where I wanna go
