"Sedan skims along the floorboard" because it's a lowrider.
"Her two pipes hummin' carbon cum" - dual exhaust.
A Brodie Knob is also sometimes referred to as a Necker's Knob and was attached to the steering wheel to allow one-handed driving. Often amber (or in the case of mine, clear blue) in color.

"Looks like an old squaw Indian" like the hood ornament on a Pontiac.
"Avocado green 'n alfalfa yellow"-- it's a two-tone car.
