Do Chevron toy cars contain lead based paint?
With all the recalls due to lead paint, many of you have written in about this topic. We appreciate your concern for saftey.
No, lead based paint is not used in the production of Chevron toy cars. All pigments used in the production of the toy cars are tested for lead before and after they are used.

Hi,Chevron Guys,
Now that we are up to 59 cars, I have updated my clip show. You'll note I never put the Utopia cars in; they have no eyeballs or smiles, and therefore are not "alive".

This time I am running the frames a little slower.
Are any more cars planned for the future? It seems that the ad campaign is winding down...that would be a sad state of affairs, especially seeing as we never got a fire truck or ambulance, ect.

I started collecting these cars about 10 years ago for my little grandson. I have stopped, simply, because we do not have a Chevron Stations here in this little Missouri town. What is the value of the first cars? And does the Chevron stations have another name in Southeast Missouri? Thanks
