73 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu's in O scale? | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

For those who know me closest, the 2011 film Drive is my all time favorite movie, and I plan on paying tribute to it on my layout.

Unfortunately, the star car from said film, the 1973 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu in primer gray, doesn't seem to be available in O scale. I'm not sure if they exist, as I don't usually pay attention to the model car industry as much as the model train one.

Any help would be much appreciated.

You can get a 74 Chevelle but I have not seen a 73.

Earlier Chevelles were also available. Note this one modeled in a crash. Matt Irwin's, Fort Pitt Highrailers, city module. Other crash vehicle is a Dodge Super Bee.

That 74 is almost $100....how bad do you want it????

You could modify the C pillars and the grille and get real close.....be hard for me to cut it up.
