Default Re: Origin of the word *Chevy* ?

Good question Casey to which I don't know the answer so there's two of us.

"Chev" is likely the earliest derivative. I remember when Toyota and Chevrolet were teaming up they already had the name "Toylette" before they even finilized the deal! [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/shocked.gif[/img]
