A 1941-47 "Art Deco" line truck, which means no common identification for all the line (except this unofficial name) If 1941, if a pickup (and it seems to be one), and if 115" (2.92 m) ½-ton model, then Series AK. It seems that no chassis code were given for this truck line (so no 3104). The 1941 125.25" (3.18m) wb ¾-ton version was Series AL. AK trucks were all ½-ton and pickups only. So saying ½-ton Pickup [AK] is like saying thrice the same thing... If ¾-ton AL it's worth this precision as more bodies were available. But AL and AK were just for the 1941 MY: - if 1942 or 1945-46 (no civilian production during WWII), then BK or BL; - if 1947: CK or CL. So if 1941 MY is kept (in both case, it will be with 11 twins): ⇒ 1941 Chevrolet AK or ⇒ 1941 Chevrolet ½-ton [AK] (but kind of repetition, then) |

Some months and searches later... If it is the ½-ton model with the 115" (2.92 m) wheelbase, it was in fact sold as Light Delivery by Chevrolet. At least in 1941 and 1942. If the 1941 only model, then it deserves indeed the AK model code. But it was also already known as 3104 in Chevrolet codes. -- Last edit: 2015-09-13 03:14:51 |
