long-roof
noun; slang term for a station wagon, particularly one that has been turned into a low-rider or a street rod; so called because the roof of a station wagon is longer than the roof of a closed car such as a sedan or hardtop; these cars, formerly thought of as old-fashioned cars that only tennis moms would drive, have become fashionable since they don't look like your mother's minivan...
hand-slammer
noun; a person who plays hand drums such as bongos, congas, or djembes; so-called because some hand drumming requires literally slamming the hand against the drums to make loud sounds.

verb; the act of playing drums or drumming, either drum set or hand drums such as bongos or congas particularly loudly as in a drumline; originally used in jazz circles in the 1930s, but revived when street drummers began playing plastic five-gallon pails and trash cans for tips.
