"A car that was renovated many years ago but runs well and makes a nice impression both inside and out. It tends to overheat easily so it needs an inspection of the cooling system."

Description

This Chevrolet was previously displayed at Kjell Olsson's museum in Olofström for many years. The current owner purchased the car for his collection in 2017 and has used it very sparingly.
Since the premises housing his collection are being sold, he has chosen to part with his fine collection this fall.
As it is not currently registered, a provenance check and a registration inspection are required for it to be legally driven on public roads.

Condition

    The car runs well but tends to overheat after a short time of driving, hence there is a need for an inspection of the cooling system. The starter motor is present and functional, but it starts more easily with a crank.

  • Interior condition:

    A renovation with brush-painted interior and reupholstered vinyl seats.

  • Exterior condition:

    Simple paintwork in good condition with a few minor blemishes.
    Nice wooden-spoke wheels with good tires. The bed is in good shape, featuring a metal-covered floor.

  • General condition:

    Truck that is nearly 100 years old and, after an inspection and registration, can be used for a long time to come.

Facts about the model

A 1927 Chevrolet truck, restored to a usable condition, is a rare and valuable gem. Trucks from this era were robust workhorses, and owning one that has been preserved and restored offers a fascinating glimpse into the early days of the automotive industry. During this period, Chevrolet was one of the pioneers in the American automotive industry, providing reliable vehicles for both private owners and businesses.

1927 Chevrolet Truck – Background and History
Chevrolet began producing trucks as early as the 1910s, and by 1927, their models had developed a strong reputation for being tough and dependable. The 1927 model year marked a time when truck manufacturing was evolving, with a focus on creating durable yet straightforward vehicles capable of handling various tasks.

Design and Features
A 1927 Chevrolet truck is characterized by a typical period design featuring a sturdy steel frame. Most trucks from this era had open cabs with basic driver compartments. It was equipped with a straight four-cylinder engine, common for the time, producing around 20-25 horsepower—adequate for smaller transport tasks and light work. The engine was straightforward to maintain, and the truck was built to withstand rough roads and heavy loads while maintaining reliability.

Most trucks of this era lacked many of the comfort features we are used to today. For example, they often had wooden seats and minimal interior fittings. The instrument panel was basic but provided essential information to operate the vehicle safely.
