Valentine's Day Chevron Cars Card
Did you know that you can send a nifty Valentine's Day card from the Chevron Cars website? The Flash card features Hank Hot Rod and Della Deluxe outside Milt's Malt Shop at dusk. Hank is one of the most popular cars on the site, and was released together with Della in May 2001. An image of Hank graces the San Francisco Giants baseball stadium in San Francisco.
A continuous stream of hearts flows across the card.
You can send a single card to several email addresses in one go (separate them with commas), and add a personal message too. See the card.
Remember, the sooner you send you Valentine's Day card, the more confident you can be that it will be read!

Senior Citizen Chevron Cars Collectors, Sound Off!
Today we received an email from an avid Chevron Cars collector named Jim. He writes:
"I have been able to collect all issued cars since the beginning, that is except for the most treasured Gold One with only 1000 issued. I was in the bidding, but it got away. The question I have is there any "Old Guys and Gals" out there collecting these great cars? I will be turning 64 this year and have been collecting things all my life. Would like to see some Blogs from other "older" collectors."
Because we get to speak with a lot of the Chevron Cars customers, we know there are a lot of seniors who collect the cars. So let's hear from you here on the Chevron Cars blog, and let Jim know that he's not alone!

Mary Caroline and Brantley's Toy Car Collection
Mary Caroline (9) and Brantley (6) have been collecting Chevron Cars for 7 years.
They have 47 cars and hope to add Alfred Ambulance to their collection sometime soon. They have had some good times playing with their cars.
One time they left Freddy 4-Wheeler in the garage after a fun game. Their mother ran over it and crushed the roof. Their grandfather gave them a new one and they made the old Freddy into a convertible.
You can see both Freddy 4-Wheelers side-by-side in the picture.

Alfred Ambulance Drawing
Ramon recently submitted a drawing of a car he calls Alfred Ambulance.
Ramon writes, "This has been "waiting" to get on here, and I finally got him famous now. To answer your question, he is Payton Pizza's cousin because both live in New Mexico, thats why they're cousins. Nando may not understand him, but he would still be a great addition to the C.C. family."
Ramon even came up with a complete biography for Alfred:
He's is from Alberquerque, New Mexico. His favorite candy is Life Savers. His favorite movie is Star Wars. His cousins are Patty Patrol, Payton Pizza and Nando.
What do you think?

Chris' Chevron Cars Collection
Chris is 10 years old and has been collecting Chevron Cars for about 6 years.
His mom writes, "This is Chris' Chevron Cars collection. He has all the cars numbered 1 - 41, the Autopia cars, and some of the Special Editions. He hopes to find the other special editions, but will probably have to get his dad to look for them on eBay or something. He doesn't have a favorite, because he can't pick just one."
Great collection, Chris! Keep an eye on the free Chevron Cars newsletter for updates about the next new cars.
