I love funny or car related t-shirts. Today I bought this shirt. Thought I'd share cause there arn't many funny car shirts that give a nod to our old diesels. While not limited to the 617, it sure fits the bill.



Blipshift, Inline Five Cylinder engine, High Five! t-shirt | blipshift

Anyone else have car shirts that fit with our cars?

I designed a t-shirt for a mercedes meet with r-hunter as the guest mechanic / speaker some years back ,the 1st meet that sunnyintexas put together around 2002 I believe,It was a borrowed picture from the fifties hot rod era with 5 young teenagers looking under the hood of a hot-roded car,I just swapped out the hot rod for a 300d and whalla. Ill try to find the art work and post a pick.I encaptioned a saying below the design that read. " If your not handsome at least you can be handy for the gals. " or something along those lines.

I ordered that shirt too, got two 602s so its fitting.

2 Samuel 12:13: "David said to Nathan, “I have sinned against the Lord.” And Nathan said to David, “The Lord also has put away your sin; you shall not die."

I saw one a few years back that read "Real Men Smell Like Diesel"

Who ever designed this, doesn`t have clue how the engine operates.

Look at the positions of the Pistons. That would be a rough running one.

Cool Design though.

You must not be a graphic designer lol. Its supposed to look like a hand. Your far left two fingers are the shortest, middle are the tallest, then the shortest is the thumb. Its a shirt about high five-ing...

You are right Iam not a designer, but if I was, the middle piston would be higher.
