Though the car is not one of my absolute favorites, this model is one of my favorite Welly toys from this series. |

I agree, that particular model is not one of my fav Bowties, But Welly looks like they did it up proud.

What a cool casting! No over-the-top tampos or bling-wheels. This is one I'd love to have. |

Welly used to be the house brand for Walgreen's, up till like seven or eight years ago, before they went to Maisto. That's how I managed to acquire this one and the other Wellys at the time. Some were straight knockoffs, like the pink version of the red Tomica beetle convertible, and others were marvelous, like the 1957 Corvette, and the Porsche 356 Speedster. |

New casting? Quick! Take it apart!

I've never seen the Chevelle by Welly. I remember,like SAK says, buying some Welly's at Walgreens when I started to buy diecasts beyond Hot Wheels and Matchbox. About the same time, the Welly's began to disappear and were replaced by the Maisto range. You'll find Welly's in the bargain bins at Target's front door area about twice a year, but they're usually the same six cars or so. Welly also makes some larger diecasts you'll find in supermarkets and travel centers. I wish some big chain would sell Welly's on a regular basis. |
