Notice the D A oil decal on this car, and so many more of that era? I used D A oil for years and they would ship it direct to you in 10 case lots. I called to order oil and the salesman told me that they had just been bought out by some nut and bolt outfit. He took my order and a month or so later when I called to reorder, they were no longer in business. I'll never understand marketing....

  This 261 6 cylinder Chevy engine was available only in 2-ton (6000 or C60 series) trucks and school buses. During it's early years (1954-57) it was an extra cost option above the standard 235 six-cylinder.
