Thanks and sorry for potentially dumb questions.

1. The COE front emblem in 1948 was different from other 1948 truck front emblems.

2. The single Thriftmaster or Loadmaster side emblem was used from 1947 through the middle of 1949. From mid-49 through 1952, two emblems were used on both sides of the hood ("CHEVROLET" over "the series number").

By the way, are you a professional brewer or a home brewer (I home brew).
