Dave -- Good question with a bad answer. It may not exist other than what Tim has found. And there are at least two good reasons that immediately jump into my mind why that is so...
1. What you are asking for will be an incredible amount of work for whoever does it. Just doing the graphic for the Advance Design was plenty difficult for me. The hardest part was finding images to work with that met two basic criteria:
-- being a good, high resolution photo (good meaning that it was composed well and showed the truck well without having to be cleaned up, edited too much or cropped excessively)
-- of a good representative truck (had to be a complete original or a truck restored to original specs -- street rods, resto rods, ratrods are simply not useable for a project like this for obvious reasons)
You have no idea how hard it would be to find a good image of an original truck from every year. Try finding a photo of a '47 (Second Series) that's composed well and shows a truck in original configuration ... no tinted windows ... mag wheels ... modern radio antenna ... non-factory color ... chromed things that aren't supposed to be chromed .... etc. Could you scan photos out of each year's sales brochures or marketing items? Sure! But before you try that, read the next part
2. And this is usually the show-stopper ... The General Motors Corporation gets very twitchy about their copyrighted trademarks, names, symbols and imagery. It's difficult to do a project like that without using the word "Chevrolet" or the bowtie symbol. And most printers won't print such a thing without a letter from GM authorizing the use of trademarks. The parts sellers who deal with repro parts have that agreement with GM. We do not. And we have been gently reminded of that in the past by our friends in the GM legal department who also let on quite subtly that they had a very big stick with which to whack us should we not take the friendly hint)
I probably won't ever even attempt such a project because I do not believe it can be done adequately by anyone other than the GM art department -- And I doubt they will do it, either.
FWIW ...
John
p.s. -- Hey Tim, did you notice that every one of those "history" sites stated that the Advance-Design was a "complete redesign?" I guess so if you don't include the drive train ...
