I'm going to guess Bruce McCall, who made real car ads that inspired him to transfer his talent to fantasy.  I don't recognize this drawing, though, and have no idea where it was used.

That's what I thought when I first saw it, too. Not from him.

I've found it. It was the Mechanix Illustrated, July 1957. It was called Mechanix Illustrated Cruiser. The cover was signed by David Lockhart.
