The boys were mostly home from war, the Pontiac MI plant was switching back over to civilian production, and the designers were putting their finishing touches on the most iconic General Motors truck ever made-- the Chevrolet \"Advance Design\"/ GMC \"New Design\", but not before churning a few more of these AKs out. These AK series trucks, produced from 41-47, are gorgeous in their own right, and this example being a GMC is comparatively rare.
