Here / Task-Force New 57 Trucks!
Performance-proved in a history- making test
on the ALCAN Highway to Alaska
The Alcan Highway is the road where trucks grow old before
their time. The road where gravel endlessly sledgehammers the
life out of trucks. Where a fog of superfine dust chokes engines,
and vicious ruts subject chassis to months of wear in a few
hundred miles.
Six new ’57 Chevrolet trucks, representing light-, medium-
and heavy-duty models and heavily loaded with cargo, roared
north from Dawson Creek, B. C., through 1,520 miles of moun¬
tains and mire, rain and hail to Fairbanks, Alaska. Running
around the clock, they made this tortuous trip-normally a
72-hour run-in less than 45 hours. The fleet made normal stops
along the way, and maintained safe and legal speeds. As a special
test during the run, two of the trucks went the entire distance
without once having their engines stopped!
It’s all down in the AAA record book. And more besides!
Never before has a new truck been so thoroughly proved. Come
in and see how well these new Alcan champs measure up to
your job.
Alcan fleet fete up to IB. 17 miles per gallon! That’s the mileage
reported by the Cameo Carrier, with Thriftmastcr 6 and extra-cost Overdrive.

FIRST WITH THE MOST MODERN FEATURES!
New 283-cubic-inch Taskmaster V8 delivers 160 high-torque horse¬
power. Standard in Series 5000, 7000 and 5000, optional in Series
6000 at extra cost. Horsepower ranges up to 210 in Chevrolet's
complete line-up of modern V8 and 6 truck er.jines.
Revolutionary Powermatic Transmission — exclusive with Chevrolet
trucks! This six-speed automatic, designed specifically for heavy-duty
hauling, is an extra-cost option in Series 5000 and 6000 and all
heavy-duty truck models. Hydra-Mafic is offered in 3000 and 4000
Series models at extra cost.
New 1957 work-styling gives Chevrolet trucks an even fresher,
fleeter appearance. There are three different and distinctive styling
treatments.
L.C.F. models outdate the C.O.E. because they’re lower, handsomer,
easier to get into and out of, and save time in routine engine main¬
tenance. Yet they offer all the traditional C.O.E. advantages.
Heavyweight Champs with Triple-Torque tandem are rated at 32,000
lbs. GVW, 50,000 lbs. GCW. And Chevrolet's advanced tandem axle
unit offers a built-in three-speed power divider—plus a unique “self¬
steering" action that reduces tire wear and increases handling ease.
All the way in DRIVE range! This Powermatic-equipped 10000 Series trac¬
tor traveled the entire Alcan Highway in a single forward-speed range!
