1952 Ford Consul Convertible by Carbodies MkI [EOTA] Pillow Talk (1959)	dsl	zodiac wrote I don't know how to get believed, and I've tried several times without getting any result I'm happy to agree with your list of names/marks. I did not know about Mk1 Zephyr having Six epithet until recently, but this was demonstrated on various entries so seems solid.	2012-06-14 01:05
1952 Ford Consul Convertible by Carbodies MkI [EOTA] Pillow Talk (1959)	zodiac	@lateef: I'm sorry. I didn't want to upset anyone, just to make this right. I don't know how to get believed, and I've tried several times without getting any result. Still; I'm trying once more: - The 1951 until early 1956 models were called "Ford Consul", "Ford Zephyr Six" and "Ford Zephyr Zodiac" http://www.philseed.com/fordzephyr51.html . Collectively they were called "The Five Star Cars". - The 1956 until early 1962 models were called "Ford Consul", "Ford Zephyr" and "Ford Zodiac" http://dakotaboo-vintage-books-magazines.blogspot.se/2010/10/vintage-motor-sport-magazine-c1959.html . Collectively they were called "The Three Graces". - The 1962 until january 1966 big UK models were called "Ford Zephyr 4", "Ford Zephyr 6" and "Ford Zodiac". To make it easier when referring to the respective models I don't mind calling them Mk1, Mk2 and Mk3, but they were never called that by Ford themselves. I'm just trying to be correct. I know all this because I own a 1955 Ford Consul (project, but complete), a 1957 Ford Zodiac (rather a lot to do, but a dream car when finished. Hence my nickname.) and a 1960 Ford Zephyr (MOT'd, but not entirely original), and I have to know this when hunting for spare parts. Not easy. -- Last edit: 2012-06-13 20:37:44	2012-06-13 20:35

1952 Ford Consul Convertible by Carbodies MkI [EOTA] Pillow Talk (1959)	dsl	It looks Consul-short to me rather than Zephyr-long.	2012-06-12 22:08
1952 Ford Consul Convertible by Carbodies MkI [EOTA] Pillow Talk (1959)	zodiac	How do you know this is a Zephyr and not a Consul? Because the picture is that blurry I've difficulty to see if this has a wider gap between the front wheel arches and the front door, and I can't see the chromed boot handle. And it was never ever called Zephyr 6 when Mk1 and Mk2. IT WAS CALLED "ZEPHYR SIX"!!!!! (And the Mk2 just "Zephyr".) Appologize for writing in capital letters and using exclamation marks, but I've tried to point this out several times here on Imcdb.	2012-06-12 21:18
1956 Checker Taxicab [A8] Pillow Talk (1959)	rjluna2	Thanks for the clearing up the interpretation of the number of headlights	2012-06-12 15:00
1956 Checker Taxicab [A8] Pillow Talk (1959)	Commander 57	I know what you're saying and I have heard reference to "quad" lamps, but the standard industry term is "single lamps" for cars with two lights and "dual lamps" for those with four. It is the reference I normally encounter.	2012-06-12 14:45
1953 Chevrolet Two-Ten Two-Door Sedan [2102] Pillow Talk (1959)	Sandie	We have a few as Two-Ten De Luxe. Should these be renamed to Two-Ten DeLuxe or vice versa?	2012-06-12 14:28
1954 Chevrolet Two-Ten Two-Door Sedan [2102] Pillow Talk (1959)	rjluna2	DynaMike is also correct on this term as I described at /vehicle_97437-Chevrolet-Two-Ten-2102-1953.html	2012-06-12 13:37
1953 Chevrolet Two-Ten Two-Door Sedan [2102] Pillow Talk (1959)	rjluna2	DynaMike is correct on the terms of "Two-Ten DeLuxe" which it only last two model years - 1953/54 model year.	2012-06-12 13:37
1956 Checker Taxicab [A8] Pillow Talk (1959)	rjluna2	My interpretation is the dual headlights of single headlight on each end and the quad headlights of dual headlights on each end -- Last edit: 2012-06-12 13:34:57	2012-06-12 13:34

1957 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Roadster [W198 II] Pillow Talk (1959)	tv boy	That's because the studio did such an excellent job of restoring and digitally remastering the film. Some of these old movies and TV shows look even better now than when people saw them in theaters or on TV back in the day.	2012-06-12 01:37
1956 Checker Taxicab [A8] Pillow Talk (1959)	Commander 57	I think you meant to say "single headlights". I also believe this front design lasted to model year 1958. -- Last edit: 2012-06-11 21:21:41	2012-06-11 21:14

1949 GMC TDH 4507 'Old Look' Pillow Talk (1959)	Mr. TDM 4512	No! - somebody has GM 4507 on the brain here! This is a 'paired window' job with what appears to be a Los Angeles livery in which event it would have to be probably a 4801, 5103 or 5105.	2011-01-24 09:09
1959 Imperial Crown Southampton [MY1-M] Pillow Talk (1959)	mrpie7	In the diner scene, 2 guys eating at the counter observe Doris Day crying profusely and one guy remarks, "Guy drives a big car. And his pal reponds, "With all the optional extras!"	2010-08-28 21:58

1959 De Soto Firedome Convertible Pillow Talk (1959)	58Roadmaster	andre1969's comments are possibly true. Will have to ask some Mopar groups about this.	2009-01-23 11:06
1959 De Soto Firedome Convertible Pillow Talk (1959)	yvon52	andre1969 wrote I think that car is a Firedome. The Firesweep's wheelbase was four inches shorter, and they took that all out just ahead of the firewall, which made the front fenders shorter. The Firedome and Fireflite had their names on the front fenders, but I don't think the Firesweep's front fenders were long enough to put that script there. It's a Firedome with he simple side trim, rarely seen. Usely on the factory pictures, th Firedome has elaborated optional side trim.	2008-07-10 23:20

1950 Checker Taxicab [A4] Pillow Talk (1959)	superba	My mistake, its an A4, I did not notice the wrap around bumpers, the rear roof is rounder and lower than A6 and the windows are bigger than on an A3	2008-06-08 19:23
1955 Chevrolet Bel Air Two-Door Sedan [2402] Pillow Talk (1959)	rjluna2	Does that looks like Oldsmobile? The insigna on the front hood does not correspond to Chevrolet models.	2007-10-27 21:15
1950 Checker Taxicab [A4] Pillow Talk (1959)	superba	This is a 1948 to 1949 Checker A2 operated by the Empire Cab Company of New York City. At the time New York law banned trucks, this is why the Checker has a trunk rack.	2007-10-14 16:23

1951 Ford Custom Fordor [73B] Pillow Talk (1959)	pilou	Not a 1949 but a 1951 Ford Custom Fordor.May be recognised by the lateral chrome strips prolonging the taillight housing on the rear fender,1951 hubcaps,grille and hood wing.Normally the lower side molding ran to the front fender but on this one it is stopping at rear door edge and not complete	2007-04-03 09:20

1946 De Soto Taxicab [S-11] Pillow Talk (1959)	pilou	DeSoto DeLuxe 1946-48 ( S-11).It has the white plastic wheel rims , so rather 46/7.	2007-04-03 09:08
1951 Chrysler Windsor Club Coupe [C-51-1] Pillow Talk (1959)	pilou	This is not a 1952 Chrysler Saratoga .Saratogas were V8 powered and had a V emblem on the hood and a bumper with 4 bumper overriders which this one has not .It is a 1951 Chrysler Windsor Club Coupe two door ( C-51-1).This model was no longer produced in 1952.	2007-04-03 09:04
1959 De Soto Firedome Convertible Pillow Talk (1959)	58roadmaster	Bumper guards weren't present on the middle priced Firedome, either. Without a better side view, I am staying with the Firesweep since there are no fender skirts, which were standard on Firedomes.	2007-04-03 04:29
1959 De Soto Firedome Convertible Pillow Talk (1959)	58roadmaster	The same book says that this car in top condition would be worth 38,000 US dollars. However, it also prices the Adventurer 2dr convertible as 55,000, before two of them each sold for well over 200,000 US dollars recently at auction. My guess for this car is 2-3 times the price listed. -- Last edit: 2007-04-02 06:28:31	2007-04-02 06:28

1959 De Soto Firedome Convertible Pillow Talk (1959)	58roadmaster	Firesweep Convertible 2dr [415], no front (or rear I assume) bumper guards. The Sportsman was not available in 1959 as a convertible. This being a Firesweep, it is 1 of 596 built. (p.93 Robinson, John G., 2006, Standard Catalog of 1950s Chrysler, Iola, WI, USA, Krause Publications. -- Last edit: 2007-04-02 06:32:36	2007-04-02 06:22
1954 Pontiac Chieftain De Luxe Catalina Coupe Pillow Talk (1959)	58roadmaster	Another side pic please? If you can count the streaks when the vehicle is in motion, the Chieftans had 4 streaks on the hood, while Starchiefs had 5. This is a two-door car, note the way the chrome dips immediately behind the side door. On four door cars there is a little more travel at the start of the rear door before the sweep spear loses altitude. If there is a center streak on the hood of this car it is a Starchief riding on a 124 inch wheelbase. The hardtop model is the Catalina or Custom Catalina. If there are just steaks on either side of the center line of the hood, then it will have 4 streaks and will be identified as a Chieftain with a 122 inch wheelbase. So in short, we need: 1)streak count or placement on hood 2)presence or lack of center post in roofline 3)any kind of chrome detail on side of tail fins. I imagine that this car is only shown in this frame between cuts to the actors speaking their lines. -- Last edit: 2007-04-02 06:34:50	2007-04-02 05:54
