Anachronism: the boy's haircut. But this was a problem in the whole 60ies - always every maker of movies, set in the past, were absolutely unable to make the correct haircuts. There are movies, set in WWII or earlier, where the ladies have the mid-60ies-beehives on the head. (G-Mann: yes, I switch off then. It's unbearable). |

afraid it´s time to switch off? Marie Versini slightly improved her haircut compared to her last engagement as Nscho-tschi -- Last edit: 2012-07-02 22:02:43 |

guess it was before the Bedford, beeing some kind of timplate! this concept gained acceptance in Germany, too called Kurzhauber ="shorthooder" is there a certain name in english? And how do you call a truck with no hood at all Frontlenker = "frontalsteerer" A car consists of 10.000 parts, 9.900 without proper translation in dictionary another word i search every evening is SICKE every car has recessed edges on sidewall often without trimline, there is no dictionary on this whole planet for automotive terms, yet! It is easier by far to translate Shakespeare than! -- Last edit: 2012-07-02 23:14:17 |

COE version of the 1947-55 Advance-Design truck line. Here with the 1947-53 grille and split windshield and the 1951+ vent windows. As the door handle seems to be the 1947-51 twisting model, this truck is most likely a 1951 only model. |

COE should be in the model name rather than extra info, IMHO. |

Unlike for the previous generations, COE was never promoted as part of the factory model name for this truck line. The hood side logos showed either Loadmaster (1947-48) or 5100/5400/5700 (1949-55), and the brochures and ads just gave the model code (5103 to 5712) to identify them, whatever the model year. For me, calling these trucks COEs is just due to (another) old habit (1) that we should just use sparingly, only when no other accurate identification can be used. Like for the truck of the main pic, just to make a difference with the conventional hood Advance-Design truck. And it should be then in the complement part, the same way some of us add medium-duty to the concerned 1960+ C-Series _____ 1: Like Apache, previously given to all 1955-59 Chevrolet trucks, or 3100 often given by default to all 1947-59 Chevrolet pickups even if the ton-rating is clearly bigger or unsure. And there are a lot of other examples for this make and the others -- Last edit: 2015-12-31 06:20:52 |

Despite not being a name the manufacturer wanted to appear in the brochures, I still think it's nice to have something in the model name denoting a specific body style, as we tend to do with coupés and station wagons. |
