Description

While driving through western New Jersey, I saw three classic cars parked on the side of the road. Parked next to the two Chrysler Imperials was a Classic Chevrolet Pickup Truck. The entire Chevy was rusty but the Chevrolet emblem on the hood of the vehicle was very shiny. The 3 vehicles were parked in front of an old building, with a Coca Cola machine on the porch. The tall weeds were growing in between the three old cars, and there was a for sale sign in the window of one of the Chryslers. Everything appeared old and forgotten. This is the black and white version.

I believe this is a Chevrolet Advance Design pickup truck which was the first major redesign after World War II. It was first available in 1947 and were sold until 1955. From 1947 to 1955, Chevrolet trucks were the number one in sales in the US. Chevrolet is an American automobile division of General Motors. Louis Chevrolet and William C. Durant started the company is 1911.
