Up for sale is a vintage 1997 Chevron Car. This Chevron Car is new in box. Box has some wear but very displayable if you wish to leave in box. I took several photos. Also included is something I do not think you will find anywhere else! It is a coloring page with a special tool to fill in the sheet. I would assume it is a coloring book sheet that came with the cars but there are no crayons only a tool shaped like a pencil. Please look at the photos. Here is what you will receive:

1) Chevron Car #6, Patty Patrol: Released June 23rd, 1997. A yellow taxi cab with the traditional black and white checkerboard colors of older New York Taxis. He cruises everywhere in town and sees new things. .  Measures Approx 5 1/2" long and 3 1/2" tall.

1) What I am calling a coloring sheet that would look great framed. Approx 12" x 10" and sealed.

Chevron and Young & Rubicam enlisted Academy Award winning Aardman Animation, creators of Wallace and Gromit, Chicken Run and many other animated films, to create the cars that love to talk about Techron. Using models hand built from plasticine modeling clay, Aardman brought the cars to life using the painstaking stop-motion animation technique they are so famous for. Shooting one frame of film at a time, each thirty second commercial took about thirty days to film. Over the years, Aardman created over fifty Chevron Car commercials using the stop-motion technique.

The Chevron Cars
Because the popularity of the Chevron Cars grew so swiftly, the Chevron Cars used in our commercials became replicated as Chevron Toy Cars.

Over a 15 year period, 60+ Toy Car models were created and sold at Chevron - and collected by both adults and kids alike.

The Chevron Cars are part of an advertising campaign of the Chevron Corporation consisting of television spots, print ads, billboards, and toy cars available at Chevron retail locations.

History Of Chevron Cars

Their debut in television commercials on May 1, 1995 featured talking cars done in clay animation, with a variety of car colors each with different personalities. The commercials themselves, done in a similar fashion to Creature Comforts, were crafted by Aardman Animations and used to promote Chevron with Techron. A year later, Chevron gas stations began selling the toy cars featured in the commercials. Chevron underestimated demand in 1997 and increased production to 700,000 on each of 4 or 5 new models at the time, compared to 500,000 in the previous year.

Although originally designed for children, Chevron executives were surprised that adults started collecting the toy plastic cars as well. Older adults are among the most enthusiastic collectors of the Chevron Cars.

On October 2, 2001, Chevron issued the limited edition Hope car to raise awareness about the fight for a cure for breast cancer and raised about $300,000 in donations. This has been followed by a new breast cancer awareness each October through 2007 with profits going to relevant charities.

In 2007, Chevron began limited production of cars in association with major commercial sports and university teams based on their Victor E. Van car.

On July 26, 2011, Chevron announced that due to decreasing consumer demand, the production of the Chevron Cars would be discontinued. This brought to an end a period of fifteen years in which they were produced and sold.
