well, to me this song takes a more metaphorical meaning. i believe that the line 'make me an old chevy' might just be Davey comparing himself to another guy that a girl he is infatuated with is dating. I think to the "narrator" the other guy is somehow "superior" in design and value as far as the girl is concerned. Davey or the narrator is in turn an old beat up chevy, while this other guy is much more valuable to the girl.

just my thoughts, if they even make sense.
