I found three 1976 or 1978 chevy chevettes in 1/64 scale over the weekend at wm in the American Graffiti series. Two color combos-one is red with flames on the doors and hood. The other color is a metalic green with exactly the same flame job. They have metal bodies and plastic bases held together by a screw that for me will not turn.The rims/wheels are similar to the Gremlins or Pacers. It gives the car an annoying 4x4 look.Overall though a great casting! :thumbsup: Anyone else see these showing up?

Yes I bought the red one. The green one looked rather ugly to me. It does sit a little high but is a decent casting.

I'll have to look for these, I learned to drive on a 76 Chevette and married into a 1980 Chevette.

I picked up a red one. I'm hoping the wheels can be modified to make it more realistic.

I found both at a Wal-Mart in Nitro, WV a week ago and bought them. I used to own an 83 Chevette coupe with a 5 speed stick. That little car was bulletproof! It had about 200,000 miles on it when I sold it. Unfortunately, by then, the floors were rusting out thanks to Ohio's pre-occupation with road salt (even when there is no snow, I might add, they spray the roads with salt water now ). I have not been able to find anything in this series in any Wal-Marts in Ohio. I am looking for the 71 Impalas as I did find one of each color in Reno, NV last month, but am looking for more to re-do in stock colors.

I haven't been able to find that one yet.

I just looked at the green one that I got on Sunday and realized that they stuck tires/rims from a pinto or pacer on the front axle and left the stock chevette rims on the back. Error or shoddy production control?

I already have a 1976 Chevette in 1/60, but from Welly, theres no comparation with this of Motormax, but Welly have the advantage of opening doors

I finally tracked one down on tuesday,these american graffiti cars are somewhat scarce all of a sudden. I've only been finding a handful of them on the pegs,got lucky and scored the green chevette after finding it laying face down on the second shelf.

They also have the 76 vega which is brown with flames and yellow with flames ,06 jeep commander.

I like to upload some pics, but how I can do it? please someone explain me

so, here is my modification of a Welly Chevrolet Chevette into a 1977 Mazda GLC, I decided this because I have another Chevette of Welly, and when the first Mazda GLC was launched many peopel says that cars is likely a japanese Chevette. What do you think? I hope soon your comments

Finally found Chevettes today!! Fresh Cherries and American Graffiti. I was stoked!!! I bought 1 of each color, but should have snagged an extra to paint like we painted the shop teachers chevette in High School -- Black w/ Yellow SS stipes, all done with house paint and a roller. It looked horrible!!! HEHE, now I need to try to find a pic of it to post!
