Chevrolet revolutionized its truck styling with the introduction of its 1947 models, marketed as the Advanced Design trucks. Emphasizing cab comfort and safety, Chevy's stylists introduced the innovative five-window cab design for the models manufactured between 1947 and 1954. This design, officially known as the Deluxe Cab, aimed to eliminate blind spots in the rear quarter panels of the cab, allowing the driver to have a clearer view of the back without the need to lean out of the window. Recognizing the evolving role of trucks as not just work vehicles but also as comfortable means of transportation, Chevrolet adapted its marketing strategy post-war. With an increased number of women drivers and a shift towards suburban driving, the automaker expanded the glass area of the 1947 models by 22% compared to prewar designs and introduced new safety-glass technology. The five-window Deluxe Cab models were specifically marketed for their innovative "Nu-Vue Rear-Corner Windows," which eliminated blind spots and featured stylish stainless steel trim on all the windows. This 1948 five-window truck exemplifies a top-tier restoration project, featuring enhanced power and comfort with a 2" lowered height. a 261ci 6-cylinder engine with a Fenton 2-carb intake, a Fenton split exhaust manifold, and a Saginaw 4-speed transmission, this truck also boasts power front disc brakes. The exterior boasts a striking dark green finish with a cream pin stripe while the bed showcases a highly polished mahogany wood floor with stainless divider strips and a sumptuous leather storage trunk. The interior is equally impressive, featuring green and dark tan high-back bucket seats sourced from a Ford Expedition, complete with a console, cup holder, fold-down inner armrests, air conditioning, radio, and 3-point seat belts. Converted to a 12-volt electrical system, this stunning example comes with comprehensive restoration photos and has only accrued 2,500 miles since its restoration in 2015.
