The Advance-Design is a light and medium-duty truck series by
Chevrolet, their first major redesign after WWII. Its GMC
counterpart was the GMC New Design. It was billed as a larger,
stronger, and sleeker design in comparison to the earlier AK
Series. First available on Saturday, June 28, 1947, these trucks
were sold with various minor changes over the years until March 25,
1955, when the Task Force Series trucks replaced the Advance-Design
model. The same basic design family was used for all of its trucks
including the Suburban, panel trucks, canopy express, and cab
overs. The cab overs used the same basic cab configuration and
similar grille but used a shorter and taller hood and different
fenders. The unique cab over fenders and hood required a custom
cowl area which makes the cab over engine cabs and normal truck
cabs incompatible with one another while all truck cabs of all
weights interchange. From 1947 until 1955, Chevrolet trucks were
number one in sales in the United States, with rebranded versions
sold at GMC locations.
While General Motors used this front-end sheet metal, and to a
slightly lesser extent the cab, on all of its trucks except for the
cab overs, there are three main sizes of this truck: the half-,
three-quarter-, and full ton capacities in short and long
wheelbase.
