lightninboy ◊ 2014-09-16 04:28	The movie was released in June 1958, so is it a 1959 truck?
antp ◊ 2014-09-16 17:42	seems a little short for filming+releasing, even with a brand-new truck
eLMeR ◊ 2014-09-17 17:54	Good point! eLMeR wrote Seems to be a 1959 hood emblem. ⇒ 1959 Chevrolet Task-Force Viking? I underlined the important parts of my previous message The hood emblem seemed to me large enough to be a 1959 one, but I didn't pay attention to the release date of the movie. My mistake. One thing sure: it has the 1958-59 grille and "4-headlights" face: 1957 Chevrolet Task-Force 6400 // 1958 Chevrolet Task-Force Viking 40 // 1959 Chevrolet Task-Force Viking 60 As one can see, there is no real difference between 1958 and 1959 trucks faces, except for the hood emblem (and the fender one, on the side). So with a blurry picture... -- Last edit: 2014-09-17 18:13:48
