Years ago, I dated a guy who owned a 1970’s Chevrolet. He’d had it shipped over to the UK from the States. It was pure white and had a long front seat that was bright red leather.
You could hardly hear the engine, in fact sometimes at traffic lights I asked him if it had stalled!

Recently, whilst driving in to town, I remembered the car and thought how since I’ve been in America I haven’t seen any like it. In fact, I thought.. come to think of it, I hardly ever see any old Chevrolets at all.

“Whats that one?” I ask Gregg, as soon as I see something that looks familiar. “Oh that’s a Cadillac.” .. after looking closer I could see that it wasn’t a Chevrolet.

We have been talking about getting me a car to get me some transport, I don’t need a big truck, I just need something to get me to HEB and back.. well.. ok.. maybe to town sometimes too but that’s all. So it doesn’t matter if it’s a guzzler because I wouldn’t be driving it that often, and I may as well have a car I enjoy driving. (I’m not sure at this point if I’m trying to convince you or me)


So I suggested an older car, a big car, like an old Chevrolet, but it seems that all the still existing ones are collectors’ cars or stuck in garages, because you never see them on the roads here. I see endless Caddys but not old Chevys.


Where did all the Chevys go.
