Description of 1953 Chevrolet Other Pickups

19535 WINDOW DELUXECHEVROLET PICKUPJIM RAYSIK GMC & JIM RAYSIK CHRYSLER IN CLINTON. MISSOURI===============THE NEW CAR DEALER THAT SELLS MORE 1947 THROUGH 1953 ORIGINAL TRUCKSTHAN ANYBODY DWIGHT ALEXANDER STARTED WORKING ON THESE TRUCKS AT ALLEN CHEVROLET IN 1951HE STILL WORKS ON THEM TODAY ! ! MOST COLLECTORS AGREETHAT THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER OF THE EARLY CHEVROLET TRUCKS IS THE 'ADVANCED DESIGN' SERIES PRODUCED FROM 1947 THROUGH 1953. MANY PREFER THE '53 SHORTBED. 1/2 TON. nbsp; AS THESE WERE THE ONLY LIGHT DUTY CHEVYS WITH THE VENT WING WINDOWS. THE PUSHBUTTON DOOR HANDLES. THE TUBULAR SHOCK ABSORBERS AND THE OPTIONAL FACTORY SIDE MOUNT. SPARE TIRE CARRIER. OURS ALSO HAS THE LIGHTEST GROSS VEHICLE WEIGHT RATING OF ANY OF THE 1953 CHEVY TRUCKS. THIS WOULD INDICATE THAT IT WAS PURCHASED AS A LIGHT DUTY HAULER AND AS SUCH. LIVED A RATHER PAMPERED LIFE. IN OUR CASE. IT WAS PROBABLY TRANSPORTING GOOSE FEATHERS TO A PILLOW FACTORY. THE WEIGHT RATING ON OUR LITTLE TRUCK IS ONLY 4800 POUNDS AND IT HAS A CURB WEIGHT OF 3100 POUNDS. NOW. IF WE WERE FORCED TO DO THE MATH. THAT SOUNDS LIKE A PAYLOAD OF ONLY 1700 POUNDS MINUS THE WEIGHT OF THE PASSENGERS. NOT EXACTLY HEAVY DUTY HAULING. IS IT ? ? STOVE BOLT 6 CYLINDEROUR LITTLE TRUCK IS POWERED BY AN UPGRADED "STOVE BOLT" SIX CYLINDER ENGINE. IT IS A 235 CUBIC INCH 6 CYLINDER ENGINE AND HAS ALL OF THE LOOKS OF THE ORIGINAL POWERPLANT. FULL OIL PRESSURE AND 35 INCREASED HORSEPOWER MAKE THIS ENGINE VERY APPEALING TO ANYONE WISHING TO MAKE IT THEIR DAILY DRIVER. ACCORDING TO WIKIPEDIA. THESE ENGINES DERIVED THE STOVE BOLT NICKNAME WHEN THEY WERE FIRST INTRODUCED IN 1929. THEY WERE CONSIDERED AN ENGINEERING MARVEL AND IT SURPRISED MANY TO LEARN THAT NEARLY ALL OF THE EXTERIOR ENGINE BOLTS WERE 1/4 INCH BY 20 THREAD. THESE WERE THE VERY SAME BOLTS THAT WERE USED BY MANY WOOD STOVE MANUFACTURERS OF THE TIME. THUS; STOVE BOLT SIX. AS CAN BE SEEN IN OUR VIDEO. OUR LITTLE TRUCK RUNS EXCELLENT. SHIFTS THROUGH ALL OF IT'S GEARS CORRECTLY AND IT'S STEERING IS TIGHT AND TRUE. NEW HORN BUTTON AND STEERING WHEELMOST OF THE RESTORED TRUCKS THAT ARE BEING OFFERED FOR SALE TODAY HAVE ONE PARTICULAR THING IN COMMON-- A CRACKED STEERING WHEEL. MANY TIMES THE RESTORING TECHS WILL TRY TO PATCH OR FIX THESE DEFECTS. RESULTING IN A 'SHORT TERM' CORRECTION AND A LONG TERM CRACK. CLASSIC PARTS OF KANSAS CITY. MISSOURI OFFERS A BRAND NEW REPRODUCTION STEERING WHEEL AND HORN BUTTON. MANY MAY FIND THE PRICE A LITTLE HIGH BUT PLEASE LOOK OVER THE PICTURES BELOW. I'LL THINK MOST WILL SEE THE WISDOM OF OUR INVESTMENT.

HOW IS OUR TRUCK BETTER THAN NEW ? ELECTRICAL PROTECTION ! WHEN THESE 'ADVANCED DESIGNED' TRUCKS WERE ORIGINALLY ENGINEERED THEY WERE BUILT WITH ONLY 'PARTIAL' ELECTRICAL PROTECTION. THE WIRES THAT WENT TO THE HEADLAMPS. PARKING LAMPS AND TAIL-LAMPS WERE ALL ROUTED THROUGH PROTECTIVE FUSE BOXES. HOWEVER ALL OF THE OTHER WIRES WERE CONSIDERED TO BE "AT RISK". EVEN THE MAIN 10 GAUGE WIRE THAT RUNS FROM THE STARTER TO THE AMP GAGE WAS UNPROTECTED AND WITHOUT FUSE. ALSO AT RISK WAS THE FUEL GAGE. THE DOME LIGHT. THE IGNITION SWITCH AND ANY ACCESSORY ITEMS. A SCARY THOUGHT EVEN WITH THE STANDARD 6 VOLT ELECTRICAL POWER SOURCE. EVEN MORE SO WITH OUR IMPROVED 12 VOLT SYSTEM. OUR TRUCK HAS A MODERN 40 AMP FUSE LOCATED AT THE STARTER TERMINAL. IT IS TUCKED LOW IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND WILL BE NOT BE NOTICED BY ANY BUT THE MOST DISCRIMINATING TRUCK ENTHUSIAST. TOTAL ELECTRICAL PROTECTION. WE LOVE THE SOUND OF A FIRE SIREN BUT ONLY IN A PARADE. IN LINE FUSE (ABOVE)SO SIMPLE BUT SO VERY VERY IMPORTANTPLEASE CHECK THE SERIAL NUMBERONE OF THE PRECAUTIONS THAT SHOULD BE TAKEN BY THE OLD TRUCK BUYER IS IN REGARDS TO THE SERIAL NUMBER. IN THE LATE 40s AND EARLY 1950s. MANY STATES FOUGHT TENACIOUSLY TO THWART THE PROLIFIC MOTOR VEHICLE THIEVES. LEGISLATORS IN SOME STATES DETERMINED THAT THE TRUE SEIRAL NUMBER SHOULD BE THE ONE THAT WAS STAMPED ON THE ENGINE. RATHER THAN THE NUMBER THAT WAS STAMPED ON THE EASILY REMOVED DOOR PLATE. THIS WORKED OUT FINE UNTIL THE OLD ENGINE WAS REPLACED AND THE SERIAL NUMBER BECAME DISCARDED. IT WAS SENT OUT IN THE SCRAP. NOW. YEARS LATER. THIS IS BECOMING AN INCREASINGLY SERIOUS PROBLEM. WITH TITLES TRANSFERRED THAT SHOW A SERIAL NUMBER THAT DOES NOT MATCH----ANYTHING. ANYWHERE PLEASE NOTICE THE TWO PICTURES REGARDING OUR OFFERING. WE HAVE ILLUSTRATED THAT OUR TITLE AND SERIAL NUMBER TAG MATCH PERFECTLY. MANY CANNOT MAKE THIS CLAIM.
