Actually, this is a 5100. 4100's were conventionals, and 5100's were COE's. |

The aspect ratio must be off. Ivan is supposed to be the same model as Mater. |

I have seen the movie multiple times, and Ivan does indeed have a broader stature than Mater. |

Then surely you remember when Holley used the computer to overlay Ivan's front clip with Mater's for a perfect match. Point is, neither of them are COEs. -- Last edit: 2011-07-04 01:55:12 |

If this were a conventional truck the hood would be longer. |

This is a conventional, the angle is bad. |

To Skywatcher68 when I said earlier that Ivan had a broader stature than Mater, I did not mean to say he was a COE, just a larger conventional cab than Mater. Sorry for the misunderstanding. Here are some (albeit low quality) screen captures from the movie. These should prove that it is a conventional cab. I have edited one of them, but only by pasting on a picture from the other part. I did not change the size of anything. Therefore, I also think he could be a ZIL 130, as it is a civilian truck from a Soviet country, just like Ivan is. Also, the shape is similar. ![]() Any thoughts? -- Last edit: 2011-08-05 01:24:05 |

Well...altough 130 seems to be more or less similar to mid 50's Ford F-series (especiallt 500 and 600), I can't remember any 130-based tow truck. |

He is a Chevy for me. |

Yes, I could not find any pictures of 130 tow trucks either. Was towing more of a government job in soviet countries when these were being built? |

No it's a COE, COE trucks of the '30s, '40s &'50s looked WAY different than than from the '60s on up, I strongly suggest you do some research on this. |
