Hi
I am looking for any documentation on what a Chevrolet 5400 COE would have cost in 1946?
Would anyone by chance have any old adverts, prices list or similar?
Cheers

Thank you JimGMC, do you by any chance have full page view of it or a reference of where you have the values from.
I need it for documentation so they can calculate the registration tax.
cheers Niels

Niels,

Although this info doesn't provide pricing or value info, it does represent an "old advert" you might like to see (and perhaps save a copy of the PDF for yourself) as it has some great detailed info on the 1946 Chevrolet "Construction" truck line.

It doesn't really provide much in the way of "farm or general cargo COE trucks", but there are a few COE related trucks displayed in the ad.

You will most likely need to adjust the screen display to see the entire document as much of it was scanned with two pages side by side.

I do like the vintage adverts and did also buy a reprint of truck model overview.
But thanks for the link, I put it to good use and added a bit more decoration to my garage door

Thanks again Jimgmc, What you sendt significantly decreased the processing time at the registration office, they didn’t have any historical data and stuck with yours as background for the registration cost
