Casting reference

'55 Chevy Fever

The '55 Chevy Fever is a Scorchers model based on a 1955 Chevrolet 150 Utility Sedan. The Scorchers models were known for their extremely powerful pullback motors. The casting was used twice and then discontinued in around 1982 with the rest of the Scorchers line; it would subsequently be repurposed as the '55 Chevy, losing the pullback motor but gaining a generic base. The casting was Final Run in 2001. This Hot Wheels vehicle has come out in the following 1/64 scale versions:
