My Sweet Ride

It's time for Danville's Doo Wop Hop and car show and the whole town is getting prepped for it. Doofenshmirtz is set on winning the show even if it means using his Rust-inator to turn all the other cars into red dust. Meanwhile, Candace's hope for a car of her own has come true, but it's not quite all she imagined.

Episode Summary
The episode starts with Candace and Jeremy walking towards the Flynn-Fletcher house. Once they get in, they come  across Linda, who is skating across the house. Candace then asks her mother when she could get a car, to which Linda answers that Candace still has her learner's permit, hence she cannot drive yet. She then questions Linda on why she is dressed in 50's clothes. Linda then tells her that the Doo Wop Hop car show is that night, and all the neighborhood's moms have volunteered. Jeremy then comments on Linda's wig helmet.

Phineas and Ferb walk into the kitchen, also dressed in 50's attire. They plan to go to the Doo Wop Hop too. Lawrence comes from the garage and asks them for his welder, and they reply they used it for their shades. He accidentally reveals that he's working on a surprise for Candace. He shows them what it is: he found his old Neblington Nymph and is working on restoring it for Candace, although it still needs heavy repairs. Since Jeremy already has his license, he can drive Candace in it once it's done. Ferb makes a gesture, and Phineas wonders where Perry is.

 * The episode has many references to the 1950's including the clothing and dialogues.
 * Happy Days - Phineas refers to this classic TV sitcom as they are dressed in the 1950's, "like when everyone dressed as a sitcom from the [1970's]".
 * Andy Warhol - Doofenshmirtz has a Warhol style painting of himself on the wall.
 * Ed Roth -  A Ed Roth "Ratkink" hotrod style image can be seen on the flyer that Monogram is holding.
 * Ford Pinto - The Pinto had a similar design flaw due to the location of the gastank that the car could catch fire if hit from behind similar to the car mention in Doofenshmirtz's flashback
