1939 Chevrolet Coupe 1:24 Scale Racing Champions.










One of the significant changes seen on the 1939 Chevrolet Master Series JB's included a longer hood. The headlights also sat atop the front fenders. Many thought the new fender and grill design of the 1939 models gave it a look similar to the Cadillac of its time. By means of its 1939 production line, Chevrolet truly attempted to attract the business class buyer. The model offered luxurious and top-of-the-line designs and accessories. The 1939 Chevy JA and JB models both met with excellent sales success.
Here we proudly present to you a 1939 Chevrolet Coupe in street rod form. While it does have a high horsepower V8, it doesn't have ridiculously wide rear tires and wheels, a wild color scheme or even any flames. What it also does have is heartbreakingly beautiful original lines, all steel panels, a perfect stance, and a Chevrolet crate engine with definite tricks added, and a gorgeous interior made for travel, and that's what this car did.

1993 Chevrolet Suburban Official Truck Indianapolis 500 Bank 1:25









The Chevrolet Suburban is a series of automobiles built by the Chevrolet division of General Motors. In production since the 1935 model year, the model line is currently in its twelfth generation; it is the longest-used automobile nameplate in the world. Beginning life as one of the first metal-bodied station wagons, the Suburban is the progenitor of modern full-size SUVs, combining a station wagon body with the chassis and powertrain of a pickup truck. Alongside its Advance Design, Task Force and C/K predecessors, the Silverado pickup trucks share chassis and mechanical commonality with the Suburban.

Traditionally one of the most profitable vehicles sold by General Motors, the Suburban has been marketed by both Chevrolet and GMC for nearly its entire history; GMC has used several different nameplates for the model line, marketing the Suburban as the GMC Yukon XL since 2000. Cadillac also rebrands the Suburban as the Cadillac Escalade ESV. During the 1990s, the Holden brand marketed right-hand drive versions of the model line.

The Suburban is sold in the United States, Canada, Central America, Chile, Dominican Republic, Bolivia, Mexico, Peru, Philippines, and the Middle East (except Israel) while the Yukon XL is sold only in North America (exclusive to the United States, Canada and Mexico) and the Middle East territories (except Israel).

A 2018 iSeeCars.com study identified the Chevrolet Suburban as the car that is driven the most each year. A 2019 iSeeCars.com study named the Chevrolet Suburban the second-ranked longest-lasting vehicle. In December 2019, the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce unveiled a Hollywood Walk of Fame star for the Suburban, noting that the Suburban had been in "1,750 films and TV shows since 1952."

1962 Chevrolet Bel Air Maisto 1:18












El Chevrolet Bel Air fue un automóvil producido en serie entre 1953 y 1975 por Chevrolet, una división de la General Motors Corporation. De 1950 a 1952, los automóviles Chevrolet de lujo eran llamados Bel Air, aunque todavía no era el nombre oficial, utilizado recién a partir de 1953.

Esta serie continuó produciéndose en Canadá con el modelo de 1981.

For 1961, Chevrolet again had a totally new body, not just new sheet metal. Its wheelbase remained 119 in (3,000 mm), but its length was now reduced slightly to 209.3 in (5,320 mm). All engines options of the previous year remained in effect with the standard engines being the 235.5 CID Six of 135HP (101 kW) or the 283 CID V8 of 170HP (130 kW). The V8 cost $110 more than the Six and weighed 5 lb. (2.3 kg) less.The Bel Air 2-door sedan used squared-off roof styling and large wrap-around rear window as opposed to the hardtop's swept-back design. The Bel Air 4-door Sport Hardtop still used a different roof line than did the 4-door sedan.For 1962, all sheet metal except the door panels was changed. Overall length was stretched slightly to 209.6 in (5,320 mm). The 4-door Sport Hardtop was no longer offered in the Bel Air series. Standard engines remained the same as the previous year. A new 327 cu in (5,360 cc) V8 of 250 or 300HP (220 kW) was offered in addition to the giant (for the time) 409 cu in (6,700 cc) V8 of 380HP (280 kW) or 409HP (305 kW) with the dual four-barrel carburetor setup. All wagons this year were 4-door models and separate distinctions for wagons were dropped. Now all models were either Biscayne, Bel Air or Impala series. Full carpeting returned as standard equipment on all 1962 Bel Air models for the first time in several years. The Bel Air Sport Coupe was in its last year of U.S. production, and its roofline was a carryover from the 1961 hardtop coupe.

Born: 1996, Arlington, Texas

This factory made high performance sedan is equipped with a 5.7 Liter V8 LT1 engine and sport-tuned suspension. Definitely a "family" car for life in the fast lane.
