In many ways, the 1950s were the golden age for General Motors, and the middle of the decade ushered in a renaissance for Chevy. Times were good in Detroit, and they were willing to take risks on new projects. Enter the design for a new luxury truck, based on the all-new Task Force trucks. Rather than a bare-bones utilitarian work vehicle, the Cameo added luxury trim, decorative body accents, and interior comforts. Carpeting, a two-tone dash and bench seat, and a radio were radical to see in the cab of a truck in the mid 1950s. As a result, pickup trucks started to become a dual-purpose vehicle that had head-turning styling on America’s highways, as well as enough grit to get the job done if put to the test. The Chevy Cameo helped mold future generations of pickups into the comfortable, yet capable vehicles we expect today.

            Auto World has replicated this 1957 Chevy Cameo emblazoned with the marks of the Classic American Beer that embodies the simple, honest pleasures that make our lives feel rich. It's the “Champagne of Beers” paired with the first luxury pickup of all time.

From Boise, Idaho, Doug Yoder of Red Lion, Pennsylvania was excited about his ‘57 Chevy 3100 Stepside, internet find. After much research, he began his six month restoration journey. The ‘57 Chevy Stepside was mostly intact but it didn’t run. Doug first tackled the renovations by sandblasting, knocking out rust and fixing dents. Then he coated everything with epoxy primer, a high-build primer, four coats of urethane base paint, including four coats of clear. The chassis was stripped to bare metal and refinished as well as a new front suspension and steering with four-speed transmission, axle, and newly wired engine. Its interior was also refinished to its original beauty. There is no wonder AACA Central Spring Nationals in Auburn, Indiana, rewarded it First Junior status, in spring of 2017.

In the traditional Monopoly rulebook, the Free Parking space is a place to hang out for a turn where nothing happens. But to make the game last longer, people played by their own rules. A favorite alternative rule is to have all fines and fees due the bank be diverted to a pot in the center of the board and a player landing directly on the Free Parking space gets the pot.

In the 1950s and 1960s, a stylish little car with an air-cooled, rear-mounted engine and a turtle back, bug-eyed profile came to America and broke all our common rules of car design. Referred to as a Beetle by The New York Times, the name caught on and its simple design and uncomplicated engine system mainstreamed its popularity among the American public. It inspired a writer and mechanic to self-publish the definitive guide for Volkswagen owners featuring hand drawn illustration and lettering in easy and fun-to-read language for novice and veteran mechanics alike. Even today, the vintage Volkswagen Beetle remains a cultural icon with an enduring legacy.

Auto World replicates this 1963 Volkswagen Beetle in Yukon Yellow, featuring the 1200cc air-cooled four-cyliner engine in the rear and a spare tire under the front bonnet. Its distinctive overall shape is covered with iconic Monopoly graphics with the Free Parking corner space emblazoned on each door. We’ve even included a resin figure of Mr. Monopoly holding a Free Parking sign. You’ve hit the Jackpot!
