About the book >.>.> You might not be aiming for Mike Cavey’s level o perfection but looking at what he did and how he did it wil guide your fix up or restoration to whatever stage you wish Although Advance Design Chevrolet trucks like Mike’s 1951 are popular your truck may be of the later 1955-1959 Task Force series or a 1960s design or an earlier 1941-1946 Art Deco model-the year doesn’t make any difference. This book doesn’t focus just on early 1950s Chevrolets. You will see models of various years in the restoration steps but we’ll let Mike Cavey’s approach be our guide. One might ask why Cavey chose a 1951 Chevrolet pickup to restore as he says to the standards one would follow in building a show Corvette to compete for the Bloomington Gold. The magic to Mike was the fact that it was a pickup. What else represents a past era better than an old truck and what truck is more universally recognizable than a Chevrolet? Look at the ads on TV that depict down-home scenes and you’ll see what I mean. Invariably the action centers around an old pickup and the truck almost always is a Chevrolet usually from the Advance Design series of the late 1940s to mid-1950s.
