The truck is a 1952 Suburban. It looks like 1/2 ton. There was also a 1 ton model, a true gut-buster. 51 was the first year for window wing vents, 52 the first year for push button door handles, and the side hood emblem with only Chevrolet and no model number was only 1952.

Also notice there are no side doors for the passengers in the rear seats. The front passenger seat folded down to allow access. That didn't change until 67.
