United States Postal Service Going Big on Automotive Stamps for 2026 with Lowrider, Route 66 Options

The United States Postal Service has long issued a wide variety of stamps highlighting all sorts of aspects of American culture, and car enthusiasm is certainly an inextricable part of that culture. Case in point: the USPS is issuing two new car-inspired stamps for 2026, and the agency is giving us a taste ahead of time.

First up is a set of lowrider stamps set for release in the new year, featuring a blue 1946 Chevrolet Fleetline named “Let the Good Times Roll/Soy Como Soy;” a blue 1958 Chevrolet Impala named “Eight Figures;” a red 1963 Impala named “El Rey;” an orange 1964 Impala named “The Golden Rose;” and a green 1987 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme named “Pocket Change.” The USPS says these lowrider stamps will first arrive in San Diego, and are inspired by the 1940s-era working-class Mexican American/Chicano communities of the American Southwest. The limited-edition stamps were designed by USPS art director Antonio Alcalá using photography from Philip Gordon of Let the Good Times Roll/Soy Como Soy.
