Combining details of truck specifications, previoulsy unpublished
images, lists of optional equipment, and industry facts and
figures, this book reveals the important role played by the
lightweight, high-production, and basic 1/2-ton pickup trick in
American post-war society, a role often overshadowed by its innate
ruggedness, reliability and utilitarian nature.As the 1950s
progressed, so did the evolution of the pickup truck, which added
more and more style, greater comfort, and ever increasing equipment
options to its burgeoning model range. After the few drab colours
first offered at the start of the decade, the pickup would assume
similar styling and tri-coloured pastel paint finishes to its
flashy sibling car versions.Focussing on truck specifications,
optional equipment, and industry facts and figures, this book also
highlights some of the rarer makes and models, and includes never
before published images, revealing cutaway illustrations, and a
dedicated chapter focussing on four very different design
approaches form the decade.
