1953 Mercury Monterey The Long, Long Trailer (1954)	Paedia	Colorado Bill wrote For the long shots of the car pulling the trailer up the hill, a 1953 Lincoln Capri with a 205 HP V8 was substituted. The two cars shared many mechanical and body components, but the Lincoln had a longer wheelbase and distinctly different rear quarter sheet metal. The side spear on the Lincoln was painted body color, and a phony side spear painted along the side of the car several inches higher to match the real one on the Mercury. A Mercury hood replaced that of the Lincoln; miscellaneous other trim pieces were added. Wouldn't it have been easier to drop the 317 into the Monterey? -- Last edit: 2012-10-03 04:27:01	2012-10-03 03:51
1950 Studebaker Champion The Long, Long Trailer (1954)	Commander 57	I hate to backtrack on myself, but I now believe this is a Champion. The bumpers have the taller, thinner Champion style guards. Either incorrect tail lamp lenses were used or the photo just makes it seem like there are "knobs" on the lenses. -- Last edit: 2010-02-16 15:59:18	2010-02-13 17:48
1950 Studebaker Champion The Long, Long Trailer (1954)	Commander 57	Listing still needs to be changed to Commander.	2010-02-09 17:48
1950 Studebaker Champion The Long, Long Trailer (1954)	Commander 57	True, and the fact they have small "knobs" at the top and bottom of the lenses show this to be a Commander, not a Champion.	2010-02-06 17:34
1953 Mercury Monterey The Long, Long Trailer (1954)	Colorado Bill	The car in the movie is a 1953 Mercury Monterey with a 125 HP V8. This is the gross horsepower as measured at the time; by modern measurement standards this engine put out about 85 HP. Not enough to pull a three ton trailer up a steep slope! For the long shots of the car pulling the trailer up the hill, a 1953 Lincoln Capri with a 205 HP V8 was substituted. The two cars shared many mechanical and body components, but the Lincoln had a longer wheelbase and distinctly different rear quarter sheet metal. The side spear on the Lincoln was painted body color, and a phony side spear painted along the side of the car several inches higher to match the real one on the Mercury. A Mercury hood replaced that of the Lincoln; miscellaneous other trim pieces were added. Compare these photos: Photo 1: The Mercury. Photo 2: The Lincoln.	2008-03-05 06:43

1952 Ford Crestline Victoria Hardtop The Long, Long Trailer (1954)	archi87	I would have said that it's a convertible, but anyway it's a 1952 Ford Crestline. If it's a convertible, it's a Sunliner. If it's a coupe, it's a Victoria Hardtop.	2006-12-18 01:45
