Lol...It does...but this was probably drawn in the late sixties or seventies. I thought the car looked like a Torino (which pissed him off).I believe it was supposed to be a GTO. His kids still have most of his art work...he was pretty good.

Still find it kind of strange that the stickers started getting reproduced after he passed away.
I remember Tom was looking for the original prints to make new one up at one time.

did a little internet search and came up with a couple of hits if no-one is familiar with the logo

seems somone is selling shirts and memorabilia on Kijiji

http://toronto.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-classic-cars-HARVEYS-HOME-OF-THE-HOT-ONES-JANE-amp-401-W0QQAdIdZ99507754

an article ( one of a few I found ) with people talking about hanging out at the Jane 401 Harveys.  Some of the others I had read spoke of using it as a staging area to race up the 400 to Finch ( not that anyone would take me with them as I was too young to drive myself LOL )

Actually most serious street racing took place on Weston Rd or Signet, just south of the Drive In. One enterprising young fellow even made a battery operated Christmas Tree.

Didn't they use an old bumper jack for that tree?
There was an article in I think Toronto life? about the jane and 401 harvey`s. Had some cool pics.
There used to be a link on line but I haven't seen it in a long time.
