I've purchased a 1954 chevy pickup off ebay. I haven't picked it up yet, I'm looking to go down and grab it next week. When I have it back home I'm sure I'll have more detailed questions but for know I was wondering if anyone knows the overall length and width of these trucks. I'm planning on putting it in my garage to work on but I want to do some pre-measuring.
Thanks, Brian

Figure about 20 feet long and about 6 feet wide. My 49 fits very tightly in a 24 x 10 foot wide garage. The garage door is 8 feet wide and it clears it by about foot on each side.

Full size trucks then were about the size of mid size or large cab compact trucks today.

I think its a half ton. I guess I will see but at least I can check things out. I didn't think they were that big.
