Looks like a one piece windshield, so I make it to be a 1953 Chevrolet COE.

The wheelbase looks medium-length, so this is also a 5400.

(1947-53 windshield and grille // 1954-55 ones)

"Our" Cab-Over-Engine model has the 1947-53 grille and 2-piece windshield of the 1947-55 Advance-Design truck line. Without a better picture, the 1947 default model year is the only one that can be given to it.
1947-48 Chevrolet heavy-duty models were called Loadmaster, and the 4-digit 5xxx code was only used for the Chevrolet internal "chassis code" (5103 to 5703): as chassis + cab, this truck has a 5x03 internal code. And COE never was a model name, so it can't be given as more than a complement.
But in my mind, trying to see here the 134"/3.40 m wheelbase of the 5403 over the 158"/4.01 m one of the 5703 is just a guess...

1947 Chevrolet Advance-Design Loadmaster COE (the latter as complement)?
