This classic truck was part of Chevy’s new Advance Design series which was introduced in 1947 and had a run through the 1955 model year.
As a tribute to Chevy’s Advance Design series, Chevrolet was the number one truck manufacturer during all of the those years. This was a great achievement when you consider that Ford introduced their new F-Series trucks after 1948.
