Chevrolet 1 1/2 ton Pickup Tanker 1927

General description : Truck and chassis converted to tanker operation
Fully Restored example
171 CID OHV four-cylinder engine
Three-speed manual transmission and 3.82 gearing
Texaco livery with 95-gallon Brown-certified tank from Brown Sheet Iron and Steel, #1720
124-inch wheelbase
Wood-spoke artillery wheels, wood-rim steering wheel and external sun visor
As Ford and other manufacturers illustrated, they built more than just passenger cars during the Roaring 20s. This Capitol AA series truck was converted for use as a fuel tanker and wears a Texaco livery. Park this in front of your business and watch the people flock in.
This restored truck has been dressed in a light green as it gets ready to move into its second century of life. The paint and trim are in overall very good order, the bodywork is straight and solid, the engine bay is extremely tidy and the truck has no bumpers. There is a small wooden space for tools or other cargo between the 95-gallon tank and the cab. Note the driver-side windshield wiper, external sun visor and the dual taillights.
The 95-gallon fuel tank is Brown-certified from Brown Sheet Iron and Steel (Not for commercial use)
This truck rolls on Michelin tires, size 6.50-20, at every corner. These tires are mounted on wooden artillery wheels. The wheels and tires are all in very good shape. The truck has two-wheel drums brakes, mounted in the rear.
Under the hood is Chevrolet’s 171 CID OHV four-cylinder engine, a company mainstay by the late 1920s. It was launched in 1913 and featured splash lubrication. This model year would be the next-to-last one for motor. It is connected here to a three-speed manual transmission with a 3.82:1 rear end.
Inside, the black cloth bench seat is in excellent shape while there are mats on the floor, not carpeting. A gorgeous wooden headliner is above the driver and a four-spoke steering wheel with a wood rim. The body-colored metal instrument panel has center-mounted gauges and the inner door liners are made of wood and look good. A floor-mounted shifter completes the interior.
Competing half-ton trucks in 1927 included Ford, Dodge, GMC, International, Plymouth and many more in the pre-World War II market.

About Chevrolet
Chevrolet aka Chevy, founded in 1911 by Louis Chevrolet and William C. Durant is the best selling and biggest brand by General Motors -mainly due to low pricing.

No wonder Chevy the "working man's car" has become such an iconic part of Americana in films and pop-culture.

When talking about Chevy one must not ignore Chevrolet small-block V8 the world's most produced engine that has been in production since 1955 and still going strong.

Surprisingly, "America's only sports car" Corvette was introduced under Chevrolet brand rather than its own. To us the most memorable Corvette has to be The second generation (C2) Corvette, Sting Ray.

To compete with VW Beatle Chevrolet introduced Corvair a compact automobile built in 1960–1969 It was the only American designed, mass-produced passenger car to feature a rear-mounted air-cooled engine. Corvair handling was deemed notoriously bad mainly due to Ralph Nader's Unsafe at Any Speed. Although, any handling issues were soon solved the reputation did stick.

With Pony / Muscle car mania taking over the Americans, following the introduction of Ford Mustang, Chevrolet came up with one of its most famous models Camaro. During the first year alone they managed to sell 220,906 Camaros.
