Maria's Question

Riley Roadster

A nice note and interesting question recently came in from Maria in San Francisco: "I have been a casual Chevron Cars collector since they were first released; recently, my interest in these adorable cars has been revived. I'm torn between keeping my cars in their cute packaging and taking them out so that I can enjoy the cars themselves fully."

"Would you please post a blog entry asking the community how they enjoy their collections - in our out of the packaging?"

Well, what do you do? Maria and many others would love to hear. Most collection images we receive show cars without the packaging. Is this really the way the majority of your collections are kept? Do tell us!

Frankie's Danny

Dannys Disney Car

One Chevron Cars fan, who goes by the name of Frankie, has his own idea for the next Chevron Car. He writes: "Here's a car for all the Disney fans out there! I had to think of all the best 'D' names, at last I picked Danny. Chevron, when will the next car come out? I would want it!!!!!!"

So would we Frankie! In fact, we hear rumors that a fabulous new car is due this holiday season. A car, in fact, that fans like you have been demanding for years. Alas, we can't say more - yet . . .. Thanks again for your imaginative contribution Frankie. Keep on being creative.

Daniel's Silver Della

Daniel and Della

Once in a while, one has to just take one's hat off and salute a truly dedicated and imaginative Chevron Cars fan. Daniel's re-creation of Della is one such moment. Daniel is a 6 year old in northern California. An avid car collector, he found himself with an old Della in bad shape. With his Dad's help he re-painted it silver. Wow! Now that's a great idea for a car. Daniel calls it the Silver Bullet.

A most enthusiastic collector he is too. When he goes back to Mexico for a visit, he gives his extra cars to friends and relatives. Way to go Daniel. You are a true Chevron Cars star. The classy picture of your Silver Bullet 'n Roses is priceless.

Christian's Idea

A Chevron cars fan called Christian sent us this nice letter. He would like to see the Chevron Cars on PBS Sprouts TV program. That's a wonderful idea Christian, and we thank you for the kind thought. It may not be feasible and practically impossible, but we are glad you like the cars that much. In the mean time, do check our Drive In Theater where we have two car commercials available. And later this year, we hear that a brand new car commercial may be sprout on a TV set near you . . ..
