1664 Chevelle wagon


Recommended Posts

Would like to know. this amt kit # 8744-200 64 Chevelle Malibu Wagon was issued back in 1964. Was it ever ReIssued any other time, or is this the 1965 Chevelle wagon we now seen over the years in other forums. Thanks for any help. Joseph

The '64 (1964 not 1664) Chevelle wagon tooling was upgraded to make the '65. So the '64 was only available in 1964. This was a very commom thing done with most toolings where the real car had a minor facelift using the last year's body. The '65 Buick Wildcat was converted into the '66 with the incorrect for '66, '65 dashboard and interior trim. The '63 Buick Riviera was upgraded to the '64, and then to the '65, where it remains. This was a cost effective way for model companies back to offer the latest model car every year.
