The International A series (or A-line) replaced the S series in April 1957.^[1] The name stood for 'Anniversary', as 1957 marked the fiftieth (or Golden) anniversary of truck production by International Harvester.^[2] It was largely a rebodied version of the light and medium S-series truck, incorporating a wide cab and more integrated fenders. A modified version of this truck range was also built in Australia until 1979, where it was marketed both as an International and as a Dodge.

Design[edit]

The new lower design necessitated a slight hump in the cabin floor. The stylish new front end, deleted running boards, and panoramic windshield brought the design more up to date for the later half of the fifties on this, the first all-new design to appear since Ted Ornas was put in charge of design in 1953.^[1] The hood was now hinged in the rear, rather than being a lift-off unit. The parking lights were mounted above the headlights. As with the R- and S-series trucks, there was a Travelall station wagon version developed from the new range. There were A-100 to A-180 series models available, with Gross Vehicle Weight ratings ranging from 4,200 to 33,000 lb (1,900 to 15,000 kg).^[2] A step-side bed remained standard, but a new flush-sided 'Bonus Load' bed was an option for the first time.^[1] There was also a gold and white two-tone Golden Jubilee Custom Pickup package available, featuring some special equipment.

B series[edit]

For 1959, the B series replaced the A series.^[2] This was the first of the series to feature V8 engines as an option, of either 304 ci or 345 ci.^[3] The usual engines were International's 'Diamond' series of inline-sixes. The B series had twin headlights, mounted above each other. The B-120 was also available with four-wheel drive. The B series was available with the same weight ratings as its predecessor, and was built until 1961 when more thorough changes took place, and the truck became known as the C series.

Australian production[edit]

In Australia the A series was built as the AA series from 1958 until 1962. Early models still have the S series grille, albeit with twin headlights. Later on (In late 1959) they received a mesh grille making them look nearly identical to the North American B series, they also received a new style dash at this time. It was the last Australian International Harvester truck to mirror the North American model, as the succeeding AB series of 1961 received many of the C series technical updates but had locally developed bodywork built by Chrysler of Australia.^[4] These received a locally built version of IHC's 240, 264, and 282 cubic inch inline-sixes called the 'ABD' (for 'Australian Blue Diamond').^[5] The Australian-built trucks also have Lucas electrics, as well as some Australian-made Bosch parts.

General information

Chevrolet Motor Division, the leading branch of the concern “General Motors”, specializing in the production of passenger cars, pick-up trucks and SUVs.

The headquarters is in Warren, a northern suburb of Detroit, Michigan.

History of the Corporation

Chevrolet Motor Car was founded in 1911 by the founder of General Motors, William Durant. Having ceased to manage “General Motors”, he vigorously created new companies. Being basically a businessman rather than an engineer, before leaving General Motors, Durant took with him a promising and interesting development of the car, on improvement of which he invited to work the popular racer Louis Chevrolet, who gave the new company his famous sonorous name.

The first model, the Classic Six, is a spacious five-seat sedan with a six-cylinder engine with a capacity of 30 horsepower, with electric lighting, four doors, a convertible top, a windshield, and in addition, a personal set of tools, was introduced in 1912. Then came the Little Four (“Little Four”) with a 4-cylinder engine. But the first models of success did not have, since the price was very high. For example, the then popular Ford-T cost five times cheaper.

William Durant realized that the key to success lies not in the luxury of the car, but in its simplicity and cheapness. He moved away from the production of chic models and began the production of inexpensive 4-cylinder machines – an open passenger car Baby Grand and a sports Royal Mail. It was on these models that in 1914 the first time the famous Chevrolet logo appeared – a bow tie.

In 1916 Chevrolet-490 was created on their base (this was its original price), which brought the company a great reputation. These cheap, but reliable cars have become as popular as the Ford. The car was so successful that it was produced before 1922, and gave life to the no less famous model of “Superior”, which existed until 1927. It was with the 490th model that the specialization of Chevrolet began on the cheapest and simple cars that brought it worldwide fame.

In 1917, the company has its own engine, a V-shaped 8-cylinder, but at that time it did not find enough demand. Dynamic, diverse and well-sold Chevrolet models brought financial success to Durant who managed to regain control over General Motors and in 1918 joined the company Chevrolet, whose products for many years became an ornament of the production range of the corporation.

Engineers and designers of Chevrolet have done a lot for the development of the world automotive industry. In this department in 1923 the first car equipped with an air-cooled engine was produced.

Since 1950, the company has begun to apply automatic transmissions on its models.

In 1953, Chevrolet produces the first Corvette (Corvette) car with a fiberglass body, which is regarded as the first attempt to create a purely American sports car equipped with a modernized Chevrolet engine with a working volume of 3.8 liters and an automatic transmission, “Corvette”, but did not find demand, but the model saved its equipment with a new V-shaped 8-cylinder engine and the modernization of the frame in 1955. In addition, the old automatic transmission was replaced by a mechanical one.

Since 1956, the “Corvette” becomes a real sports car, whose power reaches 290 hp to 1961 “283 Corvette” with fuel injection has reached 315 hp and was dispersed from a place to 100 km / h for 5,5 seconds.

1957 International Pickup Truck

Since 1963, when the “Corvette” model is presented at automobile showrooms, it becomes a subject of general admiration, to some extent embodying the American style in the automotive industry as a whole.

Chevrolet Camaro

Since 1984, the “Corvette” of the new generation in coupe versions and a cabriolet with V-shaped 8-cylinder engines has been produced.

In 1992, there were new all-wheel drive off-road vehicles Blazer and Suburban, and in 1995, Blazer released a new design. Now the famous branch of GM – Chevrolet produces dozens of models of cars of any class and type in many countries.

Since 2002, under the brand Chevrolet, the production of Daewoo cars (within the framework of the corporation GM-Daewoo Auto & Technology) begins. The light appears models Aveo, Spark, Lacetti, Rezzo.
