Definitly Eliminator. Not sure if this is counted but I love the album cover to American Graffiti. Awesome!

OK OK one more : “Crushin” by the Fat Boys for the same junyard reason. I remember seeing this album when I was a kid and wondering why the heck you’d want to flatten a Caddy limo. The Volvo wagon I can understand……

although i like the old ZZ songs better, it still is a pretty cool cover.
