Feature Truck of the Month

As it is today. When Kevin first bought it. This Feature Truck of the Month is a very attractive, almost 75-year-old 1953 Chevrolet ½-ton. It looks very above average! Only a person who is very knowledgeable about this series of the older Chevy pickup would know it has something special out of sight. This can cause the driver to get...

When we saw this “one of a kind” pair, we just had to have them as a Feature Truck of the Month! A real part of American History. Most of this article is from “Phillip Lott’s Own Words.” This special truck is a 1958 GMC, LCP (Low Cab Forward), I stumbled across in Mora, N.M.  It had the large optional...

In our 20 years posting Featured Truck series we have only listed a few 1938 Chevy USA made ½ tons. (January 2020) The 1938 Chevy trucks are much rarer than the other two years in this series, the 1937 and 1939. This is due to 1938 labor strikes that at times stopped production in most of the GM plants. It...

The proud owner of this Feature Truck of the Month is Quint Hanson of Deerwood, Minnesota. The following tells the revival of this very rare vehicle and the area businessmen that contributed. The story begins in the late 1990’s with a neighbor asking Quint if he could store an old truck in his shop that was in the process of...

Our Feature Truck of the Month is one of the remaining Chevrolet Woody’s that were on a pickup ½ ton chassis (cars are seen more). No doubt these ½ ton "people haulers” even caught much attention 80 years ago. We were not able to make contact with the owner despite the efforts of a national Chevy club member, Martin Sinzig...

In our many years writing the Feature Truck of the Month Series we have never seen a restored truck of the above year and design. We were impressed! This attractive almost 80 year old truck, originally sold for work duties, is one of the few survivors. It is owned and completely restored by Curtis Robinette in the city of Rocky...

This was posted June 2020. It's popularity made it worth a repeat. Our regular readers of the Feature Truck of the Month Series know we try to find early GM trucks that are just a little different for an article. Our choice this month certainly fills these qualifications. A 1953 GMC ½ ton owned and totally restored by Allan Fisher...

It’s 1946 and WWII has been over about a year. Most of our military had returned or coming home and were ready to catch up with their years overseas. U.S. factories were switching over to produce domestic products, but not fast enough for most. This month’s Feature Truck of the Month was created in 1946 and was almost identical to...

After 25 years providing the Feature Truck of the Month series, we have found this beautifully restored 1937 Chevrolet ½ ton nicely dressed for Christmas. The proud owner is Janna Chevalier of Bellingham, Washington (about 20 miles from the Canadian border). She purchased the pickup from the owner of a Texaco Service Station in her town. This person had given...
